Has any one had the SMP paid to them in a lump sum? If so what were the tax implications?
I have (hopefully) been offered redundnacy, but when I spoke to HR they want to pay me my SMP in one lump sum, which i thought brilliant! but after further looking on the internet it seems i will get a much higher lump of tax/Ni.
What i am trying to work out is how much more tax? and am i able to claim any of it back after the tax year ends?
When i had my son he was born on April 4th so the begining of the tax year, so i didnt get any tax on my SMP. as it was within my £10k tax free element.
ARGH TAX is soooo confusing.
