Wszystko o High Income Child Benefit Charge Calculator
📋Prezentacja+
Computes 2025/26 Child Benefit (£26.05/week for the eldest child, £17.25 for each additional) and the High Income Child Benefit Charge on the higher earner's adjusted net income — 1% of the benefit per full £200 above £60,000, fully clawed back at £80,000 — including the mitigation from a gross pension contribution.
💡 Dobre praktyki
- Pension contributions reduce adjusted net income — often turning the charge into extra retirement savings.
- Keep claiming even at 100% clawback (or opt out of payments only): the claim protects State Pension NI credits for a non-working parent.
- In the £60,000–£80,000 zone the taper adds an effective marginal rate on top of 40% income tax.
🔢 Konkretny przykład
£70,000 income, 2 children: benefit £2,251.60/yr, charge 50% (£1,125.80). A £10,000 gross pension contribution brings income to £60,000 — charge eliminated, £1,125.80 saved.
