To ensure your salary sacrifice childcare deductions are calculated correctly, your software uses the legislative tax bands and tax exempt rates for the current tax year. This information is specified by HMRC. If the Government changes this information, you can update your software to use the new legislation. You can also add a new set of bands and rates, and specify the date that they are applied to your software.
