Yes, I can testify to that. For the past few years I have been receiving a tax rebate of nearly £1,000 each year. Yes, I have written to them (the Tax man) and made comments on their website, all to no avail. The good news, that rebate is usually paid each June. I am keeping my fingers crossed that the same will happen again this year.MSN

My tax affairs are simple, 3 pensions and nothing else. The first pension is paid free of tax, the second pension is the State Pension always less than the personal allowance, and the third pension is subject to some tax. Should not be too difficult to get that right you say. However, while the website correctly shows the first pension as "No Tax Payable" on the tax calulation page it is included as taxable - hence the overpayment of tax. I am not complaining and the annual bonuse is always welcome.

If you don't mind me asking.??
My private pension is about the same amount as my personal allowance so when I draw a government pension, I am expecting to have to pay tax on all of it (I think)!
My DWP pension is tax free because it's lower than the tax threshold (individual tax free allowance - £12,570 p.a.). My PPF pension is subject to tax at the current lowest rate (20% I think) for the amount over the tax free allowance having deducted the DWP pension.
Thanks. That's as I thought.As I see it. Let's say both my DWP and PPF pensions are £10,000.00 p.a. each. My tax free allowance is £12,570.00 p.a. therefore I shall only be taxed on £20,000.00 less £12,570.00 p.a., i.e £7,430.00.
That is correct. There is not likely to be an increase in the Personal Allowance of £12,570 for several years. Tax is chargeable on all income including pensions derived from the UK. However it is deducted from either an occupational or private pension, and not from the DWP state pension.As I see it. Let's say both my DWP and PPF pensions are £10,000.00 p.a. each.

In Yorky's example tax would be charged at 20% amounting to £1,486 per year and deducted from his PPF pension at around £123,80 per month
Not sure how anyones mathematical knowledge would have resulted in 50% less taxShould Gordon Brown (The Twat) have had half an ounce of mathematical knowledge then the tax would have been half that!
How he ever became Chancellor of the Exchequer, is a mystery to me.

My first pension is tax-free or non-taxable, irrespective of any personal allowance. The reason for this is because the pension was earned wholly overseas when I was ordinarily non-resident for tax purposes. Although it is declared for tax purposes, it will never be subject to tax. It would be very nice if my other private pension was the same. However, it is not and is subject to tax. Fortunately, the £12,570 personal allowance covers my State pension of £6,084 (non-taxable) and leaves £6,486 personal allowance to be offset against my other pension. This goes along way to minimize my total tax liabilty.I will be in a simular situation after my next birthday. Why is your first pension tax free?

If you say so...I will investigate tomorrow.....pissed nowAs a gesture to the poor he deleted the 10% lowest band and reduced the 22% band to 20% thereby making the poor better off - in his misguided opinion. Admitting his error, he awarded the affected around £60.00 p.m. "rebate" for 6 months. After that it was a case of "bugger you".
I was that soldier!
At least I was one of them.

2007/2008..Did not effect me as I was not receiving enough pension to pay tax A bit different these days, though.Brown admits mistakes over 10p tax rate
Gordon Brown today admitted making 'two mistakes' over the abolition of the 10p starting rate of income taxwww.theguardian.com
After a certain age no pensions should be taxed (let's say 55 or 60). Social Security, work pensions and private pensions should be tax free income for the elderly. That would make it simple 'ey?
They want to tax you right up until you step into your grave, and even after.
It will take a very long time, like never, for me to pay tax on my frozen state pension of £117/week, or some £6,084/year. Good luck to those that will have to pay tax in the years to come.New calls to scrap State Pension income tax to stop 'penalising' retirees
The freezing of the Personal Allowance at £12,570 could see more pensioners paying tax this year.www.dailyrecord.co.uk
