    Hi All,

    Does parental leave affect your pension?
    As in when they are counting the years in service?

    Thanks

    Correct.

    Just a note to the OP. They count your service to the day, not by whole years. So a couple of weeks here or there won't make a huge difference.

    Hi, Does anyone know if spouse can claim additional tax credit for single earner, while the other is on Parental leave. (parental not maternity/paternity - the unpaid kind).
