Hi

Thanks for your question

All pay in lieu is liable to tax, and if not paid with the last salary payment, and instead paid as a lump sum after employment has ceased, should be taxed OT

The tax free £30,000 only relates to statutory redundancy, and other elements of any leaving package have to be considered as to whether they are taxable

Thanks

Hi

Thanks for your response and the additional information

Then the first £30,000 of the compensation can be paid tax free, but anything over and above will be liable to tax, as will the pay in lieu.

I am unsure what you are asking, when you state "can this still be paid in one tax period final pay"

When was/is your final working day, and when is it proposed that the lump sum payment is to be made.(as usually this is made after the employment has ceased, even if a day or two later)

Thanks

Sam
