Financial guru, Martin Lewis was back on our TV screens this week with the final episode of the current series of ITV ’s The Martin Lewis Money Show. His rollercoaster of information began with a message for married couples - and it was one that could save them thousands of pounds.
The Money Saving Expert, who has become a trusted adviser by the British public, shared his advice around marriage tax allowance during his show on Tuesday, March 21. He explained that couples could be missing out on £1000-plus by not claiming a particular tax perk.
The 50-year-old financial journalist and broadcaster, was reported by Wales Online as going on to say that: “There are up to 2.1 million eligible couples who are not claiming this tax perk”. Explaining how to be eligible and claim the 'perk', Martin said: “You must be a non-taxpayer married to a basic 20% taxpayer.”
