answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/07/2015 answer text <p>The Marriage Allowance came into effect on April 6 2015. It allows a spouse or civil partner to transfer 10 per cent of their personal allowance to their partner, provided that neither of them pay tax at the higher or additional rate. Eligible couples have been able to register their interest in the allowance since 20 February 2015 through GOV.uk and are being invited by HMRC to complete the application process through an online platform. Eligible couples who have not been able to register for the Marriage Allowance online, will be able to apply for the service after the Summer and will receive the full financial benefit for the 15-16 tax year, regardless of when in the year they apply.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency East Hampshire answering member printed Damian Hinds question first answered 06/07/2015 16:23:40 answering member 3969 label Biography information for Damian Hinds
