There are occasions where employers who’ve identified arrears for prior years, agree a payment plan with the member, then submit the arrears with the current months’ submissions without Teachers’ Pensions knowledge.

Where prior year arrears are identified, you should inform our arrears team via email (This link opens in a new window) providing the period of service and salary details. The team will then complete a calculation and issue an invoice accordingly. Unless there’s prior agreement, payment of the invoice should be as a one off payment and shouldn’t be included in the monthly contribution submission.
