Have a full and detailed job description so you know what the role entails in your firm. Work out which of those activities need to be learned sooner rather than later. Identify which tasks your employee can already do, which they can do in part a…

@benjaminfabi Thank you.

I dont see why this is a problem? Are Phoenix 'rejecting'? If they are request their legal reasons for doing so. If the answer is 'we don't think this works' point out that your client has legal advice and 'think' is not an appropriate response to t…

We can provide access to Cater Allen and have in place a support service for this if you are interested. Email me at richard.gough@createwealth.co.uk

@Sean_Fernyhough In my experience, Phoenix won't be much help when it comes to Trusts. I am presuming you are looking for the necessary Deed to retire and appoint a trustee - is that right?

@Sean_Fernyhough Which life office?

@DanAtkinsonUK said: This would probably be an unauthorised payment and therefore wouldn't be permitted by the scheme. Member benefits can only be paid to members. I do understand the desire to avoid complexity in this though... Agree.

If you are changing the trustees of an existing trust, you would have one deed that retires the current trustee and appoints the replacement(s). I have NEVER seen this done in successive days (where there is only one trustee to start with) and to…

@parawhat Which options are you trialling for meeting note recording? We have a large number of historic voice recordings of meetings and I would (a) like to get them transcribed - & for now, not too fussed about it identifying different spea…

Investment Bonds are reported on IHT 410. You add the amount received by the estate (or rather the amount that would be received by the estate once probate is granted) i.e the surrender value. In the IHT400, you deal with estate debts, including …

It will simply because the life office has either not read the Trust Deed or you are talking to someone who doesn't know what a trust is. I have constant battles with life offices over trust administration. Never believe what a life office says ab…

General rules are here: https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm12121 Statutory trusts are until age of majority, or marriage if earlier. https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/trusts-settlements-and-estates-manual/t…

We too will always look to provide advice BEFORE application / contribution / investment and give time for thinking / checking understanding. 'In good time'. Always a bit of a judgement call. Clearly, the day the transfer app is signed is not goi…

I would agree that the first £10k distributed and subsequently re-invested meets the requirements under IHTM25311 - Business relief: Replacement property: Conditions to get immediate IHT relief. However, (unlike for Business Asset Roll Over) ther…

I would arrange to make the payments direct to the mortgage lender.

The payment to the school by the company would be treated as earned income so subject to income tax and NIC for employer and director. In theory a share class for the child could be created and a div paid to them (well direct to school). The sha…

You do not need to own a property to claim. QRI would be Nil where no property owned on death with the original property being sold qualifying for a QFRI. https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm46061 GWR can not ap…

You don't need to add in asset class assumptions into Voyant. If you do, then you only need to do this once for all plans if you are going down that route (which I don't as its way too complicated and, in my view, totally pointless, unless you are …

What is the reasoning to say downsizing relief won't apply?
-
Interesting Q. In looking into this the starting point would be to refer to the trust deed to see if powers are explicitly given. (For example, Aviva has a flexible trust written under the Act with trustees having powers to alter beneficiaries.) …

GIAs - SIPP has no tax liability on gains / income. Bond in a SIPP - onshore bond taxed internally and non reclaimable. Bonds - encashment; no tax charge within the SIPP. So, onshore bond in a SIPP is a really bad idea. GIA v Offshore Bond wou…

I believe that (in simple terms) you can not have a tax credit against income which is not taxable. As the PA is being used here in full you don't get the tax credit on that amount. (As an aside, the £345 tax liability is before top slicing relie…

As has been highlighted, this does not work. Reportable on IHT 409 by executors. IHT Manual gives guidance and HMRC look out for contributions which are not of a normal pattern, or are unusual in size made when member knows they are in ill health …

@Gustavo_Fring In answer to your question, yes using doc templates in XP; Yes can code to pull through doc notes and Yes, it plays havoc with some formatting so you are not alone! The formatting problem primarily stems from the document running…

You are correct. A life assured categorically has no rights to a policy under any circumstances. It's all down to ownership.
