Almost correct.........

Allowance amounts are spot on but not the deductible figure. Effective from the 1st September 2015, the first 36,250 of the education fee is paid 100%. 90% of the remainder is then paid by EK subject to a maximum of 72,500. Anything after that you pay 100%. Ouch!

The employee contribution of 10% was brought in for our benefit apparently, allowing employees to feel more 'connected' to their own children's education. How kind of them!

10 years ago it was all free......much like DEWA.
