Alleviation for Middle England
On death Mr Smith passes all of his estate (plus jointly owned assets) to his wife free from IHT. However, this wastes 100% of his Nil Rate Band.Nil Rate Band £325,000 (As of April 2010)
Mrs Smith total Sole Estate = £650,000
Mr & Mrs Smith’s total joint Estate £650,000.
A transferable Nil Rate Band now arises when one party to a marriage/civil partnership dies and the amount of their estate chargeable to IHT does not use up all of the Nil Rate Band. Where this happens, the unused part can now be transferred to the surviving spouse/civil partner when they die.
Assuming Mrs Smith dies after 9 October 2007, her executors may also utilise the late Mr Smith’s Nil Rate Band which he wasted by leaving everything to his widow.
Less 2 x Nil Rate Bands = £650,000
Taxable Estate = £0
![Page 36: Slides Pre Retirement](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061203/547e8183b4af9f5f568b45cb/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Personal representatives will need to ensure that the surviving spouse/civil partner has sufficient documents and information about the transferable Nil Rate Band when first death occur.
The surviving spouse should therefore receive:
• A copy of the HMRC return (IHT200 or 205)
• Copy of the deceased’s Will
• Important documents e.g. deed of variation
• Valuation of assets that did not pass to the survivor etc
A claim must be made within 24 months from the end of the month in which the surviving spouse/civil partner dies.
It is the relevant percentage of the unused historic nil rate band that is carried forward – not the nil rate band itself. The appropriate percentage is then applied to the prevailing nil rate band in the year of second death.
The Unused Nil Rate Band

Inheritance Tax Solution
Mr Smith’s Estate
£325,000
Mrs Smith’s Estate
£325,000
Mr Smith leaves the £325,000 in a Discretionary Will Trust.
Total Estate = £325,000
TAX DUE @ 40%
NIL
Taxable Estate = Nil
Nil Rate Band £325,000 (As of April 2010)
If the potential growth in value of an asset is likely to outstrip future increases in the Nil Rate Band, tax planned Wills on first death leaving an amount up to £325,000 [2010/11] to a trust should still be considered.
TAX DUE @ 40% = NIL
Year 2010 value of trust - £390,000 (available NRB - £325,000 had asset passed to surviving spouse on first
death.)

Levels and bases of, and reliefs from taxation are subject to change
IHT savings may still be made via tax planned wills in the medium/long term even where the combined estate is <=£650,000.
Couples with existing Pre-Budget wills should revisit them. A simple codicil may suffice for required changes.
The ideal solution may be to always use a first death discretionary nil rate band trust and let the trustees decide the right action to take when death occurs.

• To ensure your wishes are carried out after your death
• To ensure the right people get the right assets
• To speed up the transfer of assets (via Probate)
• To reduce Inheritance Tax through Will Trusts
Why make a Will?
![Page 41: Slides Pre Retirement](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061203/547e8183b4af9f5f568b45cb/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• Laws of Intestacy – the State determines who gets your estate
• Loss of absolute control over your assets
• Unmarried partners may suffer financially
• Long delays in transferring
• £250,000 to spouse plus a life interest in 50% of residue
• The remaining 50% interest for children (in trust under 18)

• Specialist financial advice needed to ensure your estate is equalised so that each can use nil rate bands.
• Possibly need to review life assurance and place in trust
• Need to look at death in service benefits and rules in connection with their payment
• Need to look at the value of your home and ensure that it is split 50/50. This may require severance of tenancy options

Your Guide to Investment
Past performance will not necessarily be repeated in the future. Capital held in a deposit account is guaranteed not to fall in value, whereas the value of units and income from an equity- based investment can fall as well as
rise and is not guaranteed. Equity based investments should be considered as medium to long term investments, therefore if you withdraw in the early years you may not get back your original investment.
