USS Additional pension contributions
All updates to AVC elections must be made by 5 March


[Financial planning]Additional voluntary contributions (AVCs) are a form of tax efficient saving. USS members who wish to make an additional pension contribution (either as a lump sum or a monthly amount) in the 2023/24 tax year would need to have this deducted in the March 2024 payroll.



In order to meet payroll deadlines, all updates to AVC elections on the MYUSS portal must be made prior to 5 March 2024 .



The pensions office cannot provide any financial advice but can provide information on the process and the maximum amounts that can be contributed.



They can be contacted by emailing pensions at strath.ac.uk<mailto:pensions at strath.ac.uk>
