You need to work out your 'Adjusted Net Income' in order to calculate whether you are a higher rate taxpayer for the purposes of:
- Whether the High-Income Child Benefit Charge applies.
- The income-related reduction to the Personal allowance for any taxpayer who has adjusted net income over £100,000.
- Whether there is any restriction to a claim for the Married couple's allowance (MCA). For 2026-27, the MCA is restricted if adjusted net income exceeds £39,200.
- Eligibility for the government tax-free childcare scheme.
For more detail, see Adjusted Net Income.
