Good April Fool, especially with the huge number of people receiving the weekly e-mail.
There is a loophole in your loophole.
Just earn no income in the first place, then you will definately not have to pay any tax!0 -
I think no income counts as the 'earn under £6475' threshold.:TLoves to save money - loves MSE. :j
£2 coin savings - £128 Total debt £9,611 and falling0 -
lol good one MartyHelp me to help you :santa2:0

Glad you liked it...
Never easy these things... as i think on a site like this, making stuff up is bad, so it had to be something where it was all factually correct.
Plus then I worried "will someone who doesn't earn the threshold be offended" so I hope I wrote it carefully so that won't happen.
I think the calculator really makes it though

I was about to call for a knighthood for you as I start my first tax-paying job tomorrow (unless that was an April fool too!:think:) and would have loved NOT to be robbed by the tax man for 2009/2010, but alas I think it'll have to be a mere MBE or OBE or whatever the next down the line is

Excellent April Fool!
