Pension Contributions

Postby CG » Tue Oct 17, 2017 9:55 am

Hi

From what I have read I am pretty sure the answer is no, but I just wanted to check.

Is it possible to make contributions to a pension now but carry it back to 2016/17 in order to take advantage of higher rate tax relief on profits from self employment? If the answer is no, as I suspect, are there any other options here? Earnings will be substantially lower in 2017/18.

Many thanks.

The answer is no.


You may have an avenue to average profits what trade due you undertake?
