Tax implications of returning to company after voluntary severance..

[flybynight200000]

Hi everyone,
Would appreciate some advice. I took voluntary severance from a company 3 years and 3 months ago (Was told my job was going anyway) I now have the opportunity to return to them in the same role. I have heard there may some tax implications on my severance pay?

Any advice very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Sometimes HMRC question whether the termination/severance payment was genuine if for example the person is rehired shortly after "termination". In this case they would challenge the tax treatment applied. However, given it's been 3yrs and 3 months you shouldn't be concerned about this.

Thanks
