Methodical Notes:
- Year of assessment 2022.
- Number of individuals and couples shown is inclusive of those whose total income falls below the threshold after allowances and therefore is exempt from income tax.
- Inclusive of only individuals and couples who have declared earned income on their tax return. For married/civil partners this would include where either or both individuals have declared earned income.
- Please note that these figures are not directly comparable to “Statistical digest 2020 – 2022” as the statistical digest only considers taxpayers where the married/civil partners or single persons tax liability is greater than zero.
- There is a possibility of double counting for those that married/entered a civil partnership in the year of assessment returning both as an individual and a couple return.
