Hi, can someone tell me if I need to manually claim higher rate tax relief on Accenture UK workplace pension e.g. via self assessment? I had assumed it was all taken care of out of the pay packet as it’s a net pay scheme but I have a financial advisor telling me otherwise. It’ll be the first I ever heard about it if so…guess I’ve lost a load of money…???

When I worked at Deloitte, I sent a letter to HMRC and got ~£2k back. I tried the same since I started at Acn and was told it's already sorted. Keen to hear more informed sources about this.

OP How much do you make?! Are you in Strat?

It’s taken care of by payroll - net pay method. Some workplace pensions are relief at source which means you get basic relief claimed for by the provider and then additional relief claimed through self assessment. Additionally if you open a sipp you need to do the same.
