income tax advise please

Options
I've just been given the higher personal allowance as I will be 65 next Feb. I've just retired and am awaiting my NHS pesion. The lump sum is meant to be tax free. Will it be included in my years income thus taking me over the 22+k and making me liable to more tax or will it not be included at all because its tax free? Thank You.

    so it won't be included your income for tax purposes

    I already answered your question 3 days ago and you thanked me for the answer.
