Mrs MM got her fortnightly payslip today, with a relatively small deduction on it listed as "PRD Underpayment 09".
She rang the Dept. payroll section this afternoon and was told that there would be a further deduction in her next pay cheque. I spoke to the person in the payroll section. [I was a) wondering what the deduction was, and b) concerned at tax implications for 2009 and/or 2011].
He said that the deduction was "on the employer side" and I asked why an employer contribution was being taken from an employee? He then consulted someone else and said that it had "no effect on gross pay", to which I responded that it affected net pay and had a tax implication. I asked if the matter would be dealt with by way of a reissue of the 2009 P60 or the 2011 P60. He denied that this was the case, even though it is claimed to be a "Pension Related Deduction".
In the end he said that I should ring someone else tomorrow.
This is all very, very strange. It appears that a number of people in the payroll section are both confused and also not clear at all on what this "PRD Underpayment 09" is, and what the pension and tax implications are.
Can anyone throw some light on this?
