Pensions

[Mailman]

Who told you that ?

I though only tiddly funds could be migrated to a cash payment on emigration. Perhaps it's because you are not British?

Is it cause I is not English...yes. I even have it in writing from our pensions legal people too

Well that's bloody useful.

I trust if you are still permie then you make the biggest possible voluntary contributions. Or if you're contracting yourco pays oodles of contributions into a pension for you.

I don't think it only applies to non-Brits:

Yes, but Mailman wasn't trasferring. He was getting the fund paid out to him (tax free).

Most kiwis or aussies who go home get their pensions paid out to them as a lump sum when they return home permanently.

In fact many of the dodgy umbrella companies advertise the fact back in NZ and Aus that is a benefit of working for them

But seriously though...this pension thing isnt as big a problem as your government is making out.

It wasn't a big problem before this bunch of noddies moved in. At one point the UK had the highest amount of funded pension schemes in Europe. Until GB decided it just wasn't fair that is.

It was irony. Those were two problems that Gordon Brown created himself.
