NY to London

14 years ago

While there's a lot of information online, I am wondering as to certain details about London... I have been offered a new job in London which coincidentally (or not) has the exact same base salary: 120K usd - 75K gbp (still working through the bonus details). From the different tax calculators..the take home is identical between NY City / London and cost of living is very similar (i've been going through online websites for flats / grocery / electronics / etc) but I am afraid I am missing something

In NY I have these withholdings / deductions:

Withholdings:

1 - Federal Tax
2 - State Tax
3 - NY City Tax
4 - Social Security Tax
5 - Medicare

Deductions

1 - 401K
2 - Health Insurance

What are the withholdings in UK?

1 - Income Tax
2 - National Insurance
3 - Council Tax

Can you deduct pension contributions (similar to a 401K) and private health insurance premiums from the gross?

Cheers,
Tendon
