Income Tax on Pension
5 Answers
Because my combined State and Work Pensions (total £24700) are above the cutoff figure of £24000, I pay the equivalent of 50% tax rate on the balance of £700. Instead of paying tax on that £700 at 20% (£140) I pay £350. I just wondered if there was any way of offsetting some of my tax liabilities to my wife, who has not worked since the birth of our first child almost 40 years ago, and who gets only £60 per week (£3000+ per year) State Pension.
