Hello all. It’s nice to be forewarned, so here is a question for forum experts. - We, my wife and I, are both state pensioners in our seventies. We live in a council flat. We have both worked all our lives and we rely on housing benefit and other benefits that we are entitled to. My wife recently received a letter, telling her that she is entitled to a works pension from years ago which she had forgotten about. She worked for that company for ten years back in the 1980’s. She was 60 when she retired in 2004 and it has taken all this time (nearly thirteen years) to find her, because when we married, she changed her surname to mine and we changed address. Her state pension is taxable and is her only income. None of our other benefits are taxable and we have no other income apart from our state pensions and a tiny private pension which pays me a couple of hundred pounds a year. Her state pension totals approx £5000 per year. Her personal tax allowance is £11,500 (as far as I know) per year. Although she is not expecting a large amount, how large would her pension pot have to be before she would be liable for tax at 20 percent? Is my guess of around £8,500 somewhere near (wouldn’t that be nice)? Thank you for any answers.
