The personal allowance is a set amount that everyone can earn each tax year without having to pay income tax, Martin explained

Money Saving Expert founder Martin Lewis teamed up with tax pros on his latest episode of The Martin Lewis Podcast to address some burning questions from the public.

With a modest income until his state pension or private pension come into play and a hefty amount in savings, Angus was puzzled about the starting rate for savings tax allowance, which is £5,000 for those on the lower end of the income scale, allowing them to save that bit extra without the tax hit.He shared: "I'm in a situation where I've been lucky enough to retire a couple of years before retirement age.

Chipping in further, Martin said: "This is for anyone with relatively low income and high interest effectively. You may be able to get up to £18,570 without paying any tax on it." The personal allowance is a set amount that everyone can earn each tax year without having to pay income tax. This includes income from interest or employment.
