Hi, Me and my mum moved to the UK in the beginning of this year, before I left my home country, my mum gave me some money. May I know whether the money she passed me before we came to the UK incur any tax? Anything related to inheritance tax, the 7 year rule? Thanks.

Hi AMTAX,
There are no tax implications on the giving or receipt of cash gifts, but you may wish to speak to inheritance tax regarding any inheritance tax implications.

Thank you.
