英国的养恤金领取者面临74%的税收需求上升,在2023-2024年影响到130多万人。
UK pensioners face a 74% rise in tax demands, affecting over 1.3 million in 2023-2024.
英国皇家税务委员会已向英国的养老金领取者发出超过130万份税收要求,用于2023-2024年税务年度,比去年增加了74%.
HMRC has issued over 1.3 million tax demands to pensioners in the UK for the 2023-2024 tax year, a 74% increase from the previous year.
增加的原因是,随着国家养老金的上升,更多养恤金领取者超过免税门槛,但自2010年以来,税收减免一直冻结。
This rise is due to more pensioners exceeding the tax-free threshold as their state pensions have risen, but tax allowances have remained frozen since 2010.
批评者认为,这给不欠额外税的养老金领取者造成了经济困难。
Critics argue this is causing financial hardship for pensioners who did not expect to owe additional taxes.
