Pension plan 40% reduction year cannot be changed once tax return deadline has passed

A taxpayer who applied the 40% reduction in 2013 following a lump-sum pension plan payment has enquired whether they can cancel that choice to apply it to a different pension plan in a subsequent year. The Directorate General of Taxes (DGT) has ruled that, as the filing deadline for that tax year has already passed, the option can no longer be rectified.

How it affects those involved
