Deadline approaching for employers to apply for NHS Pension Scheme final pay controls to be reassessed

The 31 December 2021 deadline for employers to apply for the reassessment of final pay control charges incurred between 1 April 2018 and the 1 July 2021 is almost here.

Earlier this year, the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) published the outcome of its consultation on proposed amendments to the NHS Pension Scheme Regulations, including changes to final pay controls which were implemented on the 1 July 2021. These changes will be applied retrospectively to 1 April 2018. This means if you’ve paid or received an invoice for a final pay control charge on or after 1 April 2018, you can request for this to be reviewed.

We must receive your request for reassessment by 31 December 2021. Any requests received on or after 1 January 2022 will not be accepted.

You can find more information and how to apply for retrospective final pay control charges to be reassessed.
