UK Pension Alert 2025–26: Step-By-Step Guide to Claim Higher-Rate Tax Relief

In this brand-new video “UK Pension Alert 2025–26: Step-By-Step Guide to Claim Higher-Rate Tax Relief”, we break down everything you need to know to make sure you're not missing out on thousands of pounds in unclaimed pension tax relief. With major tax updates coming in the 2025–26 tax year, millions of UK workers and pension savers are now eligible for higher-rate or additional-rate tax relief — but most people don’t know how to claim it.

This video explains the full process in simple steps, whether you’re employed, self-employed, working part-time or contributing through a private pension. We show you how to check your eligibility, how to claim past refunds, and how to make sure HMRC pays you every penny you’re owed.

If you're earning above £50,270, you may be missing 20–25% extra relief on your pension contributions — and HMRC won’t pay it automatically unless you claim it. That’s why this guide is extremely important for employees, high earners, directors, freelancers, and anyone using personal pension schemes.

This is a must-watch for anyone who wants to boost their pension pot, reduce their tax bill, and secure more money for retirement. Watch until the end for important warnings, examples, and the newest 2025–26 updates every UK taxpayer needs to know.
