Can someone clarify for me the difference on PETS and CLTS….
If a gift or transfer is made to a trust it is a PET, whilst all other gifts and transfers are CLTS?? I am using BPP and it does not provide any clarification on this particular point at all! Kaplan does but I havent got this years Kaplan text!October 29, 2012 at 3:51 am #106170for the purpose of F6 exam,
PETs are transfers made by an individual to another individual.
CLT are transfers made by an individual to a trust.October 29, 2012 at 5:23 am #106171and,
PETs only become chargeable if the donor dies within 7 years – they are not chargeable when made.
CLTs are chargeable when made – 20% (donee) or 25%(donor) – and chargeable if the donor dies within 7 years.
One should work through the two ACCA IHT articles by David Harrowven – some great examples.
