This adjustment targets individuals who received up to £300 from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) at the end of last year but have an annual income exceeding £35,000. Affected pensioners will receive notification—via letter, text, or email—from HMRC about changes to their 2026/27 tax codes.
