Frequently Asked Questions
What is the current inheritance tax threshold?
The current inheritance tax threshold is £325,000 for an individual, above which tax may be due on the value of the estate. This can vary if you leave your home to direct descendants, which may increase the threshold. Premier Accounting Solutions can help you understand how these thresholds apply to your situation.
Can gifts made before death reduce inheritance tax?
Yes, gifts made more than seven years before death can reduce the value of your estate for inheritance tax purposes. Premier Accounting Solutions provides guidance on timing and structuring these gifts to help manage your tax liability effectively.
Are there any reliefs available to reduce inheritance tax?
Several reliefs can reduce inheritance tax, including business property relief and agricultural relief, among others. Our team explains which reliefs you might qualify for and assists in applying them correctly as part of your estate planning.
