  • High Income Earners
    Is yours or your partner’s income more than £60,000?

    If either you or your partner has an individual Adjusted Net Income (ANI) of more than £60,000, the person with the higher income may have to pay a tax charge on some or all of the Child Benefit you get – it is called the High Income Child Benefit Charge (HICBC).

    If you or your partner decides not to get Child Benefit payments, you will not have to pay the tax charge.


    So If:

    • Your individual ANI is below £60,000: You will not need to pay the tax charge unless you or your partner’s ANI goes over £60,000 in any year in the future.
    • The person with the highest income has an ANI between £60,000 and £50,000: The tax charge will be less than the Child Benefit that you or your partner get – it will be charged at a rate of 1% of the amount of Child Benefit payable for each £200 of ANI between £60,000 and £50,000. You will not need to pay the tax charge if you decide not to get payments.
    • The person with the highest income has an ANI of more than £50,000: The tax charge will be the same as the Child Benefit that you or your partner get. You will not have to pay the tax charge if you decide not to get payments.

    It’s important that:
    • You claim Child Benefit even if you decide not to get Child Benefit payments.
    • You and your partner check if your individual ANI is more than £60,000 every year you claim Child Benefit to ensure you pay the correct tax charge.

    How we calculate your income

    We calculate your ANI as your salary for the year plus any taxable benefits you get from your job minus certain tax reliefs such as payments made gross to pension schemes.
