Are you married and a UK taxpayer, does you or your partner use all of their allocated tax allowance.

Did you know if you do not use your whole allowance you can transfer up to 10% of your allowance to your partner and you can claim back over the last 4 years you could get over a 1000 pounds rebate.

Follow the government link to see if you qualify.

Many pensioners will soon be paying tax on their pension because the allowance has not risen for a few years and pension rises are dragging many into this situation

I can confirm this..

And it is worth doing, it increases your tax free allowance, myne has just risen to 13830 for this year.

May not be a lot to some but it's free money.

It's totally outrageous that the UK government not only expects pensioners to exist on a pension which is below the poverty line but also then decides to claw back some of the pittance they receive in the form of income tax.聽 Somehow, though, I doubt that Labour will change anything when/if they win an election....

For me the only difference between them is the colour of their banner.

I used to be all in red but they parrot similar to what the blue team say.

I just hope it's only to win votes and they are still standing for the workers but I doubt it from what I'm seeing.
