    Re: Pension..

    Unless you are a UK tax payer, you cannot contribute to a UK pension scheme. You can pay into many normal saving schemes in the UK or investigate local pensions options. You can leave your investments in the UK pensions schemes that you have but you cannot pay more in unless you are a UK taxpayer.

    Hi there,

    I am 26 years old and I currently have money in a pension scheme called Nuvos, as I previously worked as a Civil Servant between 2008-2011. However, I now live in Spain and work in Gibraltar. The Money in my Nuvos scheme cannot be paid out to me directly as I gave more than 2 years service, however it can, of course be transferred to another scheme. I also have a small lump sum in a scheme with my employer previous to that who was John Lewis, and I only have 6 months to transfer that lump sum. I would ideally like to transfer both amounts from the 2 seperate companies into a private pension. I haven´t yet opened a private pension as I dont know the first thing to do to go about this. Particularly as I now live abroad and my current employer, and not many in Gibraltar, offer company pensions, I would like to pay into a personal one.

    Can anyone help with how I go about this and what are the best ones? I dont want to make a massive contribution every month but some would be good.

    Many thanks
