Pensions Contributions & Susi Grant

Hoping to apply for Susi grant for my child starting college this year.
Question is re Pension Contributions taken from salary. Employer matches salary pension contributions of 10%.
I know pension contributions can be deducted for Susi if in relevant year. On the Susi application it also asks for Employer pension contributions on the form as other income,
Does anybody know if this Employer pension contribution forms part of reckonable income for the grant?



many thanks

Hi sanddy,

The employer contributions are ignored for SUSI purposes in the circumstances described.

Good luck dealing with SUSI!!
