Marriage Allowance

sheramber

you can only register on the GOV.UK site.

In due course HMRC will contact you to proceed with the verification. You need to wait for theat email.

To register click on the link ( the word 'register') in this line on the above guide

OK, so how do we actually do this in practice? To take advantage of the scheme you need to first register.

Daft question, is this only open to UK nationals, or anyone who has an NI number? The article suggests the person transferring allowance will need ID including a UK passport or driving license. SWMBO only holds a Taiwanese passport at the moment - does this mean she isn't eligible to transfer, or will we need to go through one of the other means of verifying ID?

In typical GVT fashion, when asking for your identity, there does not seem to be any mention having to produce an ACTUAL marriage certificate!

Did you ever see 1984?

If my husband is subject to an IPO will/can this extra allowance be taken as personal rather than joint extra income?

Thank you

The marriage allowance is available to those on basic rate tax.
If you have an extra allowance it will be in your code number and increase the level at which you start to pay tax. If it is money coming in it is income, if it is txable it will be included if it is not tax able then it won't.

Subject to all the provisos there is no reason why you should not

if you are friendly with your ex but, as are my wife and I, are still married is it possible to use your allowance to allow your ex patent the smoothly to use the extra cash for the benefit of our son's wellbeing? He lives in between two houses and we have a cordial yet definitely separate relationship ! there is no chance of us getting back together however there is little chance that we will divorce at this current time D2 the expense and lack of need. I suffer with quite severe health problems and the cost of the divorce + making a will are prohibitive for me. although she has a great job it is only fair can I contribute where and when I can and as I am Now unable to work completely and on benefits I do not pay any tax. what are the rules regardless of being separated and are they different if I do not have a job and therefore although I'm a taxpayer if I get any interest on bank accounts etc does the fact that I don't have an earned income make a difference?
