@instagram I'm looking to revive an old website & would like to have Instagram account with same name. I'm trying to add new account. It tells me the names are taken, although one is inactive & the other doesn't exist. Can you help, please?

Super grateful to my YBF team for support my creative endeavours.

31 years full contributions, 15 years to contribute before retirement & still contributing NI from part-time employed role. Maternity not necessary. Wise to contribute voluntary class 2s or are there no benefits? What would contributory Employment & Support Allowance offer?

I work 3.5days/wk for employer paying tax & NI and have lower income from self-employed work. What are the benefits of paying voluntary class 2 NI on my self-employed income when all other contributions are up to date?

Or is this automatically claimed from the government at the basic 20% rate and add it to my pension pot by my pension provider?

So if I am a self-employed basic rate tax payer I don't get any tax relief when I pay into a pension myself? I'm confused.

This was a payment I sent to a small pension account I had from previous employment. This specific payment was nothing to do with my employed work. It was self-employed earnings which I paid tax on, then put it towards pension.

@HMRCcustomers I have a section on my Employment section called "Correct expenses which have not been reimbursed" which shows as an error as I enter £0. Do I delete this section as I don't have any expenses to add there? If so, how without deleting whole employment section?

I have a small pension that I and my employer pay in to, but I was referring to a separate pension contribution that I paid in to a separate pension pot as I had some money left over after completing my tax return and paying tax on my self-employed work last tax year.

No, I pay basic rate.

Drawing or doodling with no pressure on outcome can be a wonderful way to unwind. #Art for Relaxation classes begin again in #Barnet on Monday 22nd Jan. juliaelmore.com/events/art-f… Send me a message if you'd like to join an online class.

@HMRCcustomers I paid into my small pension in tax year 2021-22 but did not claim on tax return as I didn't realise I could. Can I backdate this claim and how? Do I need to add to current tax return somehow or apply separately?

@HMRCcustomers I am both employed and self-employed. I pay NI through my part time payroll job and pay tax on my smaller self-employed earnings. I believe paying class 2 NI is voluntary at the rate I am earning self-employed. What are pros/cons of paying voluntary contribution?

Thank you Suchona. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Switched to UC at request of HMRC. Trying to compete declaration form for award review period ending 18.11.23 which is due today. Can I do this online or only by phone or post?

Happy Birthday @cerihand Thank you for the knowledge and wisdom you generously share with artists. @RichPettitt @patriciabidi @101birdtales

Thank you Jess.

@HMRCcustomers In 2021-22 I was employed and self-employed. I had a pension through my workplace and when made redundant paid a small lump sum into that pension. This payment was not deducted from my pay. Do I need to tick yes or no in this section please?
