Marriage Allowance

sheramber

No underpayment or overpayment as you wife requested the transfer and never cancelled it.

The allowance continues until your wife cancels it or one of you become higher rate taxpayers.

As  Acouple you are no worse off.

Any cancellation by your wife will only take effect from the end of the tax year in which it is made. - 5 April

Hi,

I am looking for some advice and support, please.

My annual income before tax is £47025 plus my company pay me £4500 car allowance for my personal car, which is a totally of £51,525

With my travel I get 0.25p per mile and I claim 0.20p from the government for the 10,000 miles. Which has added £2000 to my personal allowance I think is £14,570. 

I am claiming marriage allowance £1260. 

Everything in total works out to be £15830 for my tax free personal allowances.

i am still on 20% tax, but my questions is am I still eligible for marriage allowance? Because I earning before tax £51,525?

my partner earns £9000 per year.

i hope this make sense.

You've got a few things slightly wrong.

You cannot have a Personal Allowance greater than £12,570.

You cannot "claim" Marriage Allowance, presumably you mean your spouse applied and you get the benefit?

Will your P60 show £51,525?

Do you have any pension contributions to factor in?  If so which method is used to make these?

Net pay
Relief at source (the pension company adds 25%)
Salary sacrifice
