I was hoping I could get some advice/assistance please.
My client is newly self-employed but also receiving a work pension from a previous PAYE employment. In 13/14 he received a redundancy payment. I understand that up to £30,000 of this is tax free and anything above that will be taxed, and I know where to put this information.
He is also receiving a 4 weekly private pension, and I also know where to declare this income.
What I am struggling with is where (if at all ) I need to declare his tax free lump sum he received at the start of his retirement? The pension letter states very clearly that it is tax free (12.4% of the current Government Lifetime Allowance limit)
My question is, even though it is tax free, ought it to be declare in the tax return, and if so where/which page or box? I have searched online and cannot find the answer.
Many thanks in advance.
Laura

You do not include it
It is not taxable so there is no reason for it to go into a tax return. If you really want belt and braces put the receipt in the additional information white space.
