    "Obviously getting the 20% tax relief if you are not even a tax payer at age 18-21 because you are still in full time education is positive."

    20% tax relief so this refers to SIPP not LISA? Is there something significant about the age 18 - 21 about paying into a SIPP or limits, or special rules for being in (or not being in) higher education?
    Pension/LISA both benefit by the same percentage 'uplift', 25% (for a BRT).

    Nothing specific, no.

    I think Bowlie was merely indicating that obtaining tax relief/bonus whilst not paying income tax is a significant positive all round, and one you rarely find during your adult life with HMRC.
