Personal Savings Allowance Updated!

From 6 April 2016 the amount of any Personal Savings Allowance you’re entitled to will be based on your adjusted net income.


For every £2 that your adjusted net income exceeds £100,000, the £10,600 personal allowance is reduced by £1. Pension contributions and Gift Aid can help to reduce adjusted net income and save tax at an effective rate of 60%.

From April 2016 HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) is introducing a tax-free Personal Savings Allowance of £1,000 (£500 for higher rate taxpayers) for savings income or interest.

The new allowance means that most people will no longer pay tax on their savings interest.
