TTFA Certificate for BCE 3 for a Pre A day Pension
Hi folks
I have received a TTFA Certificate for a client.
The client received a DB pension in 2005 but also received a pension increase triggering BCE 3 on 1st April 2016 at which time his DB pension was £17,535 a year.
The TTFA certificate only shows the usage caused by BCE 3 not the usage of his DB pension as at 1st April 2016.
Is this correct as I thought both should be listed on the certificate?

The percentages on certificates doesn't matter - they key point is that the allowance usage is correct.
You could get different answers re the % :
a) the pre a day was a deemed BCE not an actual one so shouldn't be on there
b) the TTFAC % should be the amount deemed to be used if a BCE happened on 5th April 2024 so it should be included.
I think b is correct but moot.
Thanks Les, much appreciated.
