ex HMIT

I'm not sure why you are suggesting I contact HMCTS. IHT and CGT are matters for HMRC and earlier in this thread in relation to a CGT query it was stated the probate value of a property could be amended within 2 years of date of death. I was questioning that as an amendment to the probate value may have both IHT and/or CGT implications.

Just reread my post above it should read that the legislation and guidance say 6 months after finding out the value was wrong.

Where does the two years to amend the probate value come from please? The legislation, S217 IHTA 84 says 6 after finding out the value was wrong and this the IHT manual reflects this at IHTM10701.

I have established for myself how to do this after the person I am helping confirmed they had accepted me. It's disappointing that no one from HMRC replied.

I am in the process of registering as a "trusted friend" of someone. How long will the process take after they confirm I can act in that capacity? What happens after they confirm I can act in that capacity? Will I receive confirmation and instructions about how to access their personal tax account?
