Tax relief on pension contributions   
Am I right in thinking that contributions can be made net - and relief
obtained - up to the limit of £3600 gross irrespective of whether
there is any income against which to claim the relief? Putting it
another way, if a person has income of less than £6035, he or she can
still pay £2880 net and the pension provider will be able to gross it
up to £3600 by claiming from the government.

Regards
