Thanks, does that still apply if UK tax has been paid on the OAP? or at least the tax code has been 'fiddled' with.

I did try a search but couldn't find an answer that fitted my situation.
I am rather concerned that the accountant I used (who only told me last Friday that he was too busy to do this years return) had not included the state (OAP) pension in the last 3 years returns.
Although that does line up with what I was told at our local tax office official 4 or 5 years ago who completed the return for us & when he saw the P60 didn't include any of it.

[quote user="NormanH"]If by state pension you mean the OAP it is not taxed in the UK[/quote]
I've just re-read her PAYE coding notice & they have reduced her personal allowance by the amount of her State pension ie:
Your personal allowance £7475
State Pension -£4964
A tax free amount £2511
We turn £2511 into tax code 251L to send to Teachers Pensions.
So while the state pension isn't taxed, it comes off her personal allowance.
It still raises the question of what do I put into what box?

We have used an accountant to complete our tax form for the past few years but he has let us down this year & I'm trying to work out what he has done in the past so I can complete the form for 2011
My wife has both a Government & a State pension both of which are taxed in the UK, I can find in section VII on form 2047 where he has declared the Government pension but can't find anywhere where the State pension has been declared, did he just leave off the State Pension because it had already been taxed?
Can someone explain in simple terms what I enter where? please

Boiling the Frog, thank you very much, the more I look into what he has done in the past, the more I agree with you that my accountat was crap.
Thanks again.
