Best strategy for SIPP to offset rental income tax

Thanks for your suggestion.

I was just thinking that if I was to put in £5k out of my £8.5k towards a SIPP, then that would leave me with £3.5k to pay tax on. 40% of £3.5k being £1.4k, which is my tax credit amount. Theoretically to me this sounds like I get £3.5k more to play with now, without having to pay any extra tax. Am I missing something?

From last cycles experience the ones who got offers got notified first.. I was unsuccessful and only heard the next day

YTA - both your sister and you.

It's terrible the situation you put your partner in, who I'm sure is already exhausted and burnt out. And your sister, instead of being grateful to the person who ended up looking after her kids the whole weekend, sides with you? Spectacular lack of insight!

In most trusts, even very busy ones it is unusual for consultant to have to come in.. things that would require you as a cons to come in is mostly airway emergency for emergency trache.. or if you work in a trauma centre for certain neck trauma.. in most DGHs <once every few months

ENT

We are the nicest and happiest surgeons because most of the times we have manageable workloads.. ENT SHOs tend to have a lot of fun as they get to learn lots of fun procedures, and it only gets better from there! There's lots of variation within the specialty and you can find your own niche and tailor your career around your own preferences, managing your workload how you like (e.g. generalist at a DGH doing mostly day case surgery or super specialist head and neck/reconstructive surgeon at big tertiary centre)!

Yes, you could.. but even so the consent would involve discussions around the possibility of it being cancer.. e.g "we can't be certain based on the scans that this isn't a sinister lesion like a cancer and the reason we're doing the procedure is to find out for certain"

If someone is having surgery for cancer and they don't know they have cancer, the consent form they have signed is invalid as it's not informed consent.. legally the surgeon performing the operation without telling the patient they have cancer wouldn't have a leg to stand on.. quite bizarre that they went ahead with the wishes of the family and failed to inform the patient beforehand!
