People in a civil partnership can also claim the tax break from HMRC by using a simple online form
Martin Lewis is encouraging married couples and those in a civil partnership to claim a "tax perk" worth up to £1,242 before the current financial year ends on April 5. The money-saving guru told viewers of The Martin Lewis Money Show Live that more 2.1million couples could be due some “serious cash” in a backdated payment from HM Revenue and Customs .
He also clarified that a non-taxpayer is “literally somebody who does not pay income tax in the year” adding that volunteering doesn’t count and that the bottom line is that if “you don’t pay income tax, you’re a non-taxpayer”. In a graph to help people understand the simplicity of the transfer, Martin said: “Their allowance [non-taxpayer] has gone down, but they’re not using it anyway, and the taxpayer’s allowance has now increased to £13,830 - 20 per cent of that is £252. If you’re eligible, you can claim back four years, that means you would get back £1,242.”
