Should a person over 65 pay tax on a pension from a late spouse's place of employment?



If an old lady who is over the age of 65 is still earning a salary, but gets a pension from her dead husband's place of work. Should her current employer reflect that income on her taxable income?

No the current employer will not reflect this pension as this is from another former employer for which a different IRP5 will be sent to you.
