How to avoid the fiscal drag pushing people into the 60% tax bracket New data shows a sharp increase in UK taxpayers facing a 60% tax rate due to frozen personal allowances and wage inflation. Taking the right tax advice can save you a fortune. Many could have made highly tax-efficient pension contributions to avoid this. For Scottish taxpayers in this bracket, the effective rate on employment income is 69.5%, so, by putting money into your pension, you can immediately triple your cash! Making proactive steps like salary sacrifice and pension contributions could help mitigate this tax trap and keep more of your hard-earned money. To avoid falling into this tax bracket, get in touch with the team at Hall Morrice for expert tax advice. #TaxAdvice #PensionContributions #FiscalDrag #TaxSavings #FinancialPlanning
