I have possibly gained a new potential client who is coming upto retirement age of 65.

He is employed and self employed, he will start drawing his state pension aswell as a personal
pension.

After retiring he will carry on being employed and self employed.

What will be his situation with NI and income tax afer retirement?

Thanks!

    I would presume that everything is the same apart from the extra personal allowance. This would be a good thing to check out because I am sure more and more clients will be coming forward in this position. Good point to raise rhm!

    People over retirement age pay no NI contributions.

    Employers will still pay Class 1 secondary NI in respect of these employees though.

    Remember to cancel the Class 2 direct debit - HMRC will rarely remember to do it if you don't!

    They also benefit from the increased personal allowance (personal age allowance (PAA)), as TC said.

    However, this allowance is reduced depending on their STI, the 06/07 limit was £20,100. The PAA is reduce by £1 based on this formula:

    1/2*(STI-20,100)

    You would deduct the result of the above from the PAA.

    Hope that makes sense.

    Regards

    p.s the PAA increases again at 75.
