Income Tax for the over 65’s

For 2012/13, the personal allowance for those aged 65 to 74 is £10,500, an increase of 5.63 per cent over last year. This generous increase went largely without recognition in view of the further announcement that the allowance will not be increased next year or thereafter until such time as it is aligned with the personal allowance available to those aged under 65. This has been described as ‘granny tax’ although whether that is an apt description for steps towards creating a uniform personal allowance regime for all individuals will be a matter of viewpoint.

The personal allowance for those aged 75 and over for 2012/13 is £10,660.

Peter Tarren

only available to any married couple where at least one spouse was born before 6 April 1935.

For 2012/13, the allowance is £7,705 and this provides a tax reduction of 10 per cent of the allowance, maximum tax relief therefore £770.50.

The allowance is also subject to the income limit of £25,400 and where income exceeds this limit it is reduced in the same manner as the age allowances reduce as described above, but in this case it is not reduced below a minimum figure of £2,960.

The very wealthy The income limit

All these age allowances are subject to an income limit. For 2012/13 this limit is £25,400. Where income does exceed the limit, the higher age allowances reduce for £1 in respect of every £2 of income above the limit, but not so as to reduce the allowance below the ordinary personal allowance for those aged under 65.

Tax planning around the income limit

Whilst we have higher personal allowances for those aged 65, sensible tax planning will split income between husband and wife so as to maximise these allowances.

For example, if a couple have total joint gross income of £40,000, split £8,000 to the husband and £32,000 to the wife, neither will qualify for the age allowances. This is because the husband’s income is too low and the wife’s income is too far in excess of the income limit so that she has no entitlement to age allowances.

If income could be split equally between them, both would be entitled to the higher age allowance.

This may not be organised easily if the main source of income is a pension but investment income does provide opportunities for this.

Married couple’s allowance

The married couple’s allowance is

For advertising contact Christine on: 01609 777401 | www.jkanorth.com

It should not be overlooked that any pensioners who are fortunate enough to have income in excess of £116,210 in 2012/13 will not receive any personal allowances at all. For married couples, there will clearly be significant tax advantages to be achieved by reorganisation of finances where one has income in excess of this figure and the other has income well below the threshold of £100,000.

The age requirement

To be entitled to the higher age allowances, the claimant must be at or over the required age at some time during the tax year. Therefore a person born on 5 April 1948 will be entitled to the age allowance of £10,500 for 2012/13.

However it has been announced that anyone born after that date will only receive the basic personal allowance and will never become entitled to the higher age allowances.

Tax planning before retirement

As income can reduce considerably upon retirement, it can be sensible under the current regime of high personal tax rates to defer investment income until after retirement. There are a number of ways by which this can be achieved and we would be happy to discuss these with you.

Alternatively use can be made of life assurance bonds to reduce income and increase allowances.

New Facilities at Emmy Jayne’s Nursery School Since opening in September 2006, Emmy Jayne’s Nursery School has gone from strength to strength and proved to be popular with parents both in Northallerton and the surrounding villages.

An increased demand for places in early 2012 led to several months of major expansion and refurbishment as two new purpose designed rooms were created at the Nursery. Both the Little Stars Room (Under 1’s) and the Little Acorns Rooms (3 – 4 year olds) have created additional spaces for children and also increased the age-specific tailoring of each space.

Previously children aged 3 – 5 years had been situated in the same room and 0 – 2 years in the same way, however since the refurbishment, children are now able to develop at their own pace more and enjoy the recently extended outdoor facilities

New Wool at New Jersey in Bedale is delighted to be celebrating it’s first year of trading since opening in late May 2011. To mark the occasion they are now stocking Low Sutton Wool, which is sourced from local sheep herds near Masham.

with other children at the same stage of development.

The little Acorns room allows the youngest preschool children to develop their confidence in a small group, and prepares them for the transition into Giant Oaks where they will become very well prepared for school. Both rooms benefit from following a Literacy programme.

Emmy Jayne’s Nursery is owned and managed by qualified teachers who, along with the presence of a housekeeper, ensure high standards are maintained throughout the nursery; from the home cooked, organic and locally produced fresh food to the Learning Journeys which track your child’s learning to capture key moments in their development. .....................................................

For more details about Emmy Jayne’s Nursery or to organise a visit please call: 01609 771177 or email: enquiries@ emmyjaynes.co.uk

Owner Jane Bates tells us more, “I have always wanted to support other local businesses and so using wool from Masham seems a perfect way to do this. We also sell a wide range of quality yarns from Rowan, Debbie Bliss, Louisa Harding, Patons, and Adriafil. People are always welcome to call in for a chat and for some friendly advice. Our ‘Flappers ‘n’ Tuckers’ knitting group on Tuesday & Friday afternoons, plus 1st & 3rd Monday evenings, is a great way for beginners and experienced knitters to meet and have fun!” ..................................................................

Carnival

An action-packed Northallerton Carnival is on its way this summer, with a range of new events planned for Sunday July 8th from 12 noon onwards.

The performing arts are well represented on the stage throughout the af ternoon with AJ Performing Arts, Allerton Players, belly dancers, zumba, bokwa, clowns and cheer leaders all taking part. Stilt walkers will be mingling with the crowds too.

One of the events will be a “Mini Olympics” sprint relay, with teams from Northallerton College and the Allertonshire School passing the baton less than three weeks before the start of the London Games. Supported by Northallerton Mowbray Rotary Club, students will form age-graded teams based on countries represented at the Olympics.

New this year is a fancy dress competition themed on Queen Elizabeth (in her Diamond Jubilee Year) and Prince Phillip. Organisers look forward to seeing the Royal couples on the day, and everyone is invited to come along and join in the fun.

Keep Your Outdoor Wooden Furniture Looking Like New Often, the most attractive Outdoor Patio and Deck Furniture is made from wood. Wood is a natural product, but when exposed to moisture and changes in temperature and humidity, it reacts in a number of different ways.

Proper maintenance of your Wood Patio Furniture will provide a long life over many years in a variety of weather environments.

Some varieties of outdoor wooden furniture include cedar, redwood, oak, and pine. These woods, though (especially pine), must be treated with a preservative to prevent decay, which can occur rapidly if exposed to harsh weather environments. Protecting this wood furniture with a water-resistant stain, protective oil, or polyurethane is also recommended. Your local home and garden store will have many options from which to choose, and a store associate should be able to assist you in selecting the most appropriate product to be reapplied regularly (check manufacturer’s instructions for details).

Outdoor wood furniture should be cleaned once a year. Mix one tablespoon of bleach, five tablespoons

22 Northallerton infocus

Please mention “infocus” when contacting any of our advertisers

of a gentle dishwashing liquid, and a gallon of water, and softly rub the surface of your wood furniture with a soft bristle brush. Wash the solution from the furniture, and allow it to dry completely in the sun. Repainting or restaining wood furniture could be indicated at this time to cover and protect any worn or damaged areas.

All woods are susceptible to rot and decay if left in damp, humid, and shady areas for a long time. Wood that becomes saturated with rain water is more likely to warp and rot, so using waterproof protective covers when your furniture is not in use is strongly advised to keep your wooden patio furniture in good shape.

The bases of furniture legs are definitely the most susceptible when it comes to water damage. If wood furniture is kept in the grass, at the poolside, or on a surface that collects even a small level of rain water, the legs can become easily saturated and damaged. Covering the bottoms of each furniture leg with rubberized material or small sections of cedar fencing material will help protect your furniture from rotting from the bottom up.

Finally, exposure to chemicals including solvents and chlorine, and exposure to common items such as alcoholic beverages, plants and flower nectar, and hot items (off of a grill, for example) can permanently stain and damage wood surfaces. Additionally, it is vital to prevent plastic objects, like plastic table cloths, toys, placemats, and appliance covers, from lying on wood furniture for a long period of time because plastic can discolor wood. Plastic can also stick to and damage a wood finish.

The lifespan for any wooden patio furniture depends greatly on the type of wood used and the weather it is exposed to. Properly maintaining your outdoor wood furniture can make it last for many years and maximize your investment. Outdoor wood furniture makes a quaint, charming, and nice addition to any backyard, deck, patio, or garden, and with care, it will continue to make a great impression for years to come.
