Tata Consultancy Employee on an Intra-Company Transfer?
Check your pay slips to see if they have the wording ‘Tax Free Dispensation’ in the first 24 months of arriving in the UK.
If you do. That’s great. It means that you are getting the tax benefit automatically on your pay slips. Tax free dispensation is an agreement that TCS has with HMRC to automatically give you a fixed amount of tax relief on Expat related Expenses.
If you don’t have it then you need to get it sorted straightaway as it means that you have not been availing the tax benefits that may be due to you. These benefits often means a tax refund of around £2500. The great news is that you can go back 4 years and claim it. Even if you have left the country, changed jobs or moved from ICT to Skilled Worker.
