What is the new personal tax allowance for 2019/20?

The Income Tax Personal Allowance for 2021/22 is £12,570.

Anyone earning more than £100,000 will see their Personal Allowance reduced by £1 for every £2 earned over £100,000.

What do I need to do?

Nothing, if you have instructed Foremans LLP to administer the payroll on behalf of your business, we will apply the new rates to the calculations on your behalf and amend your weekly salary to our advised level of £183 per week in order to minimise your tax liability whilst qualifying as making NI contributions.

If Foremans LLP does not process the payroll for your business you will need to apply the new rates as at 06 April 2021.

If you would like to discuss any of the issues noted above please contact us on:
