A number of changes over the next 3 years have been announced.

 

2009/10

The upper earnings limit will be realigned with the higher rate threshold at £43,875.

 

2011/12

The earnings threshold will be broadly realigned with the personal allowance.  At the same time the rate of Class 1, 1A, 1B and 4 NIC will all increase by ½%.  This will take Class 1 employer’s NIC to 13.3%, and Class 1 employee’s NIC to 11.5% for earnings up to the upper earnings limit and 1.5% above it.  The self-employed will suffer Class 4 NIC at 8.5% up to the upper profits limit and 1.5% above it.
