Government announces significant climbdown on IHT reforms
The introduction of a £1 million cap on 100% business and agricultural property relief from April 2026 has been criticised particularly heavily by the farming industry. The government has announced a significant watering down of the measure. What’s happening?
Your tax code is what your employer or pension provider uses to deduct tax from your payments. When changes are required, you are sent a P2 coding notice showing how the code is worked out. The notice can be confusing, and cause worry. HMRC has launched a new online tool to help you. You need a few details to use it, namely your:
- tax code
- annual income, before any deductions
- company benefits details (if any)
- State Pension amount (if any).
In some circumstances, you may find you need to change your code, and the tool directs you to the relevant service to do this.
