GPs will be expected to use new pension forms from October 2023 onwards, NASGP has learned.
LocumDeck has updated its automated pensions paperwork after NHS Pensions changed the Locum Forms A and B at the end of September.
The new forms are needed because the forms issued at the start of the pension year in April 2023 only ran until 30 September 2023 in preparation for a possible change in employee contribution rates in October 2023.
In the event, there has been no change to employee contribution rates in October. So only the dates on the forms have been updated to now run until 31 March 2024.
GPs who use LocumDeck will not be expected to make any changes, but may notice the new appearance of the forms.
