State Pension Tax Trap Explained | Leeds News

from Leeds News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

UK State Pension is taxable—but HMRC handles it cleverly by adjusting your tax code to cover it first, then applying tax to any leftover income. With the personal allowance frozen at £12,570 until 2028 and pensions rising yearly thanks to the triple lock, more retirees are slipping into the tax net. Your total income—pension plus private savings, earnings, etc.—can push you over the line. HMRC is stepping up clarity, especially online, to help folks navigate this complex system as their income evolves.
