thanks folks, it is appreciated.
the appt on the 1th was broght forwar to the 2nd an as expected the army pension etc means i dont get owt, thats an hour of my life i wont get back lol. the stamp in a sense is irrelevant as i have 49.25 years less the contracte out element of the army pension so what has been set cant increase.
they are going to tax my oap in a weird way to me rather than take br basic rate from the pension they have changed the tax code on my army pension to k65x which from what i gather it effectively adds 650 to my pension figure theoreticall only and then taxes that whole figure as week 1. then my oap is just paidd gross.
so i am going to have to wait till the end of oct to see what that is.
its never easy. still weeks hol on the 26th so can relax a bit.
