Marriage allowance is an HMRC issue not a DWP issue and it is NOT a public fund.

This link might be of interest:
https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... t-and-past
This is adjusted through the tax code.
You can claim Married Couple’s Allowance if all the following apply:
you’re married or in a civil partnership
you’re living with your spouse or civil partner
one of you was born before 6 April 1935
For marriages before 5 December 2005, the husband’s income is used to work out Married Couple’s Allowance. For marriage and civil partnerships after this date, it’s the income of the highest earner.
This is just my opinion as a member of this forum and does not constitute immigration advice.
Please do not send me private messages asking for advice.
