Tax-Year Transition Checker

On 6 April every UK tax year resets — new ISA and dividend allowances, frozen tax thresholds, fresh CGT AEA, and a possible tax-code revision. Tell us your situation; we’ll return a prioritised checklist of what to do, what changed for you in pounds, and the deadlines to hit.

Your situation

What changes for you on 6 April

Actions are sorted by urgency. The pounds-and-pence column shows the headline change for the 2026/27 tax year vs 2025/26 frozen thresholds.

"Frozen + reset" means: the allowance figure does not change year-on-year, BUT the unused portion does not carry over — it resets to zero on 6 April. If you do not use it before then, it is gone for the year.
