Parents who are liable for the high income Child Benefit charge will no longer have to register for Self-Assessment in the future in order to pay it
. Instead of submitting a tax return to HM Revenue and Customs , working parents will be able to pay it through their tax code.
People whose income is over the threshold can get Child Benefit payments and pay any tax charge at the end of each tax year or opt out of receiving payments and not pay the tax charge. Ms Coles added: "The tax charge has always fallen unfairly on the shoulders of single parents, because it's based on the income of the highest earner. It means they can have a household income of £50,000 and cross the threshold, while a couple can earn £49,999 each and still receive all their Child Benefit.
"If you claim Child Benefit, you receive NI credits that count towards your State Pension until the child hits the age of 12, which will help you hit the target. If you don't claim at all, you don't get this credit either. In fact, you need to apply for child benefit and then opt out of receiving the money."
