Isa max... What happens

Options
If your allowance of 20k is invested in a S&S isa in one hit, what happens to dividend payments.
Are they taxed?
I. E. The value is greater than the 20k...
Probably a silly question to most but I'm not you!

    Dividends/changes in value of the investments held in the ISA don't affect your ISA allowance. What matters is how much you physically pay in each financial year, so paying in £20k in one hit uses up the allowance for that year. As you don't pay in the dividends then they don't count :)

    It is a contribution allowance.  Not a valuation allowance.
