  • cashed in pension tax refunded but SA wants it repaid

    i cashed in my personal pension last autumn and this was taxed at 40% not 20% at the time. i applied and received a refund for the taxed that was over charged at the time at couple of months later. I'm informed on filling out my SA I have to include the tax amount that was refunded (the amount that was the difference between the basic tax 20% and the higher 40% rate) in the tax already repaid box on the SA form. But this simply ends up with the assessment calculating that i have to repay the whole amount that was refunded which is obviously wrong. how to do sort this out?
