When can my employer pay into my SIPP?

I’ve had a SIPP now for about 4 months that I’ve been paying into but my employer is unable to make contributions. I keep seeing that IE is unable to facilitate this but say that they hope to be able to do it soon but still no updates or information. Does anyone know, especially anybody from IE have any news?

Hi! We are currently working on implementing the ability for employers to make contributions to SIPP accounts. Our team is diligently working on the finer details and new features to facilitate this. We understand the importance of this feature and are aiming to have it available as soon as possible.

We will provide updates as soon as we have more information

Any news on this?

I’m hoping to switch to IE after the vanguard fee increase and the IE fee decrease.

As a director, it’s crucial that I can make company contributions.

Do you think it’ll happen within the next six months?

I second here. I would only transfer from Vanguard once investing directly from my ltd is available. By the way, this thread started already several months ago. If you have this feature in the roadmap of development, it would make sense for you let us know to have an idea about it. The answers we get here “Our team is diligently working on the finer details bla bla” are the typical answer ones gets from a boring old large corporation. Be a startup and let us know in a transparent way when you have this in the pipeline! It matters for planning my next company and personal year!

Hello all!

Please be advised that our pensions team are working on implementing the ability to accept employer contributions to SIPP accounts. We understand the importance of this feature, and we are focused on bringing it to you as soon as possible. While we do not yet have a specific timeline, we will provide an update here as soon as more information becomes available. We appreciate your patience and will keep you informed of our progress. Thank you for your understanding.

…And they replied to you with more copy pasta…makes one wonder.

Hi @sipper - sorry you feel that way. The team really is working hard on all of this, there’s a range of priorities for our new Pensions lead, and this is one of them, as well as opening up wider SIPP transfers. As soon as we have more to share we’ll let you know.
