New tax code

[glasgowgal]

Hi,

Like many others this month my tax code appears to have changed. Does anyone know why this is? Was it mentioned in the Budget and I missed it? Is it for this month only or is this my new code?

TIA

This is your new code for the rest of the tax year. After abolishing the 10% tax rate and hitting all the low earners the Governemtn was forced to increase the personal allowance. So you should have got up to £55 or so extra this month (covering Apr to Sep) and then you will get £10 a month extra for the rest of the tax year.

Thanks, Lady Muck.
