Can I still use last year’s ISA allowance?
Your ISA allowance is the maximum amount you can shelter from tax within an ISA during any one tax year, which runs from 6 April to 5 April. Once the new tax year starts, you get a new ISA allowance – so any unused allowance from the previous year goes to waste.
What happens if you open 2 ISAs in a year?
It’s tricky though, as you’re allowed to have more than one open, you just can’t pay into two in the same tax year. HMRC will work out which ISA had the payment into it that breached the limit and will reclaim the money (including charging you for any tax owed).
