Redundancy Tax Free Sum And Re Employment

A question about : Redundancy Tax Free Sum And Re Employment

Hi All

After being made redundant 3 months ago. There is now a vacancy within the same company but different department due to someone leaving.

What are the implications on the tax free sum if returning to the same company after 3 month? will the redundancy payment now be subject to income tax?

Thank you in advance for your advice

Best answers:

• No, there is no time limit.
• Some companies have their own policies though as it would make unhappy some employees to see someone is made redundant, received a sum of money only to come back to another job.
  My previous company had a 3 months limit.
• The 3 months is usualy there in company policies to avoid ET.
