Civil Service £1500 payment

[saf12345]

Will we get the full £1500 or will this be taxed?

Taxed

Of course it’s taxed.

It’ll be taxed, national insuranced (not sure if that a word 😂) and depending on who your pension you might have to pay pension contributions. Oh and if you have a student loan they’ll take more too. Still it’s better than nowt!

It’ll be taxed and likely pro-ratered if you’re part time.

Yep, pro-rata too.

The pro-rata bit pisses me off - it’s a cost of living payment. Our costs haven’t risen pro-rata!

We were told it's not pro rata. Maybe depends on department.

MN is turning into Reddit!

Taxed and taken out of our budgets, government not paying any extra and getting tax windfall!
Bet come next budget discussions they say it can be reduced as each department managed to find this money.

Thread on this already :)

Has anyone had confirmation that we will receive this payment even if on maternity leave?

Sorry posted on the wrong chat!

Taxed ....it's classed as earnings

You should receive the £1500 if on mat leave providing you were employed for the qualifying period.
