Marriage allowance

3 replies

Hi all,
Me & my husband are looking at claiming the marriage allowance as we fit the criteria or so i thought. I've just gone to apply and it says in the first paragraph that you can claim if you have no other income other than your wages, we get child benefit and universal credit, does that mean we can't claim? Does anyone else claim MA while receiving child benefit & UC?
Thanks

Yes you can still claim it.

@Purpledaisies4 Don't forget that the claim can be backdated so if you have earned below the tax free allowance in previous tax years you can get it backdated which means that you will get a lump sum as well I think it is 3 years
