  • »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp employment is treated as continuing

For more information on Reserve and Auxiliary Forces see PAYE70220.

When a reservist is called up for duty (mobilised), to ensure that he receives the full benefit of the personal allowances whilst on active duty, we must switch the personal allowances from an employment to the reservist pay for the period of mobilisation only. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp allowances must be switched back when the reservist is de-mobilised (de-mobbed).

Note: This applies in all cases regardless of the length of mobilisation.

»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp Ministry of Defence (MoD) will provide weekly lists of reservists who are mobilised and de-mobilised. Upon receipt, follow the Action Guide at PAYE61056.
