    This is accurate information...I opted out in my former Trust but I was automatically re-enrolled into the pension in my new Trust.
    I'm about to opt out again as I intend to leave the country soon.
    However, one thing to note is that you'll be taxed 20% of what you've contributed.

      What if I’m working for nhs for last 4 years. ? Last one year is with new Trust. I opted out from the former trust and automatically re enrolled to the pension with new trust. Can I still opt out and get the money back ?

      Why do nurses always make the biggest mistakes. You get £1 pension. I need £25 to get £1 payout. You deserve poverty if you don't educate yourself to the best pension scheme in the world.
      Shame on your ignorance.
      Overseas people are more intelligent than you.
      Shame on your decisions.
      What a disgraceful video.

    I wouldn’t ever recommend taking money out of your pension. The government is contributing to your pension pot and it is a tax efficient way of saving for your retirement,, if you are paying into any pension at an early age it will also have the benefit of compound interest,, having time to grow ,, the NHS pension is one of the best pensions in the country and it can be paid even if you live abroad providing it is one of the countries on their list ,, as with any company pension, if it is taken out of your wages directly you really won’t miss it ,, best wishes, Lisa

    British born here. They don’t even go over percentages or pension in the UK educational system. They do it on purpose so you don’t question it. I left the nhs pension just in time to receive the full sum (-20%) before two years. Make sure you leave if you want 9% of your salary every month.

    Nice ... How is inflation in uk?
    I have Speciality doctors job in NHS with 72000 GBP per month before tax

      £72,000 is not bad to start with. Once you're in UK, you can always find better deals

      Hi It also depends where you live in the UK. the north up you go the better in terms of cheaper rent. with your salary expect around 3900 GBP per month after tax and NI/ pension deductions. also the increase in salary is pretty slow don’t expect much only if you jump hospitals or work locum. schools are important, a lot of parents pick places to live because of good schools you can check the rating of schools using OFSTED rating.
      example of rent/ bills:
      -Rent around 1000 to 1500 per month.
      - council tax around 150 could be more
      -energy: really depends on usage and if the house is old or new, around 150 per month and goes higher in the winter.
      -Water around 50.
      internet/ phones bill: also depends on the package you take. data package 11 per person per month plus like 30 for internet.
      -Cars most people do PCP but as starter il will difficult because most of them ask 3 year address history residence in the UK. You can lease a car through the NHS scheme (best option tax efficient is electric ones) but don’t know if you can do it immediately after joining. The best option at the beginning is to live not far from the hospital where you can walk or bike. average of 70 GBP weekly for the petrol(small car) if you live a bit far from your work.
      -foods 500 to 1000 depends what is your consumptions basket. especially with the inflation.
      This is a just an example it could be more or less. hopefully it can help you clear some of your questions.

    You dont need to get your money if you decide to leave the UK as a nurse because the NHS pension allows you to get your money when you retire and that will help you greatly in your retirement.

    If we opt out of pension after 1 year, Do we get the amount which NHS also contributed to it? ( for eg: The salary is 2000 pounds. I have contributed 200 pounds each month and NHS contributed 400 ( 20% of 2000) each month. If I opt out after 1 year, do I get 7200 pounds? (200 * 12 + 400 *12)

      To the best of my knowledge, u can claim back your pension deductions with 2 years of joining the NHS. If u speak to the pension officer in your NHS hospital, they'll give you the form to fill
