PENSION CONTRIBUTIONS
All UK residents can put £2880 net (£3600) gross pa into a pension fund. Higher rate tax payers can use pension contributions to reduce their tax bills
PENSION CONTRIBUTIONS ARE A VERY EFFICIENT WAY OF SAVING TAX NOW AND SAVING FOR YOUR FUTURE BUT TO MAKE CONTRIBUTIONS and REDUCE 20/21 TAX BILLS THEY HAVE TO BE PAID BY 5 APRIL 2021
CAPITAL GAINS
If you have investments and are contemplating selling all or part of them, remember you have £12300 allowance against capital profit for 2020/21. You will lose this tax free allowance after 5 April 2021
INHERITANCE TAX
Everyone can make gifts of up to £3000 pa outside Inheritance tax
ISAs
Adults can save £20,000 pa into an ISA – the child rate is £9000 pa
MARRIAGE ALLOWANCE
If you are married or in a civil partnership, check whether you can utilise the marriage allowance (which allows the transfer of £1250 of tax free allowances between spouses/civil partners)
GIFT AID PAYMENTS
These payments can reduce your tax bill but again they must be paid before 5th April 2021 to count against 2021 income. If you are a couple, it is most tax effective for the higher rate taxpayer to make gift aid payments.
