HMRC’s Pension Schemes Newsletter 144 includes various roundups for administrators and employers, and highlights an important point in plans for the digitisation of relief at source claims. Previously (see Pension Schemes Newsletter 139), HMRC had outlined plans to introduce functionality to make interim claims digitally by the end of 2022/23. Having reviewed the position, HMRC has ‘reluctantly decided not to proceed with a digital interim claims service’, noting the following: ‘The delivery of a digital interim claims service has proved more complex than we originally thought. Our overriding priority is to deliver a full digital service, including individual level data, for digitisation of relief at source claims by April 2025.’
