I noticed that the IHT paid previously during lifetime on the CLT (£2,000) was not later deducted from the IHT payable after the taper relief was deducted.
Less: the £2,000 IHT paid on the CLT (that grossed up the transfer.)
In example-1 it was deducted after the taper relief.
I was wondering how come?
Thanks
There is NO IHT payable on the CLT at the date of death as it is more than 7 years before the date of death so there is neither taper relief nor IHT paid in lifetime to deal with – the only lifetime transfer that is taxed on death is the PET where of course there is no IHT payable in lifetime.
