Thanks! We'll proceed with reporting on paper.

My partner is unable to access her Government Gateway account because of a data mismatch and was asked to submit documentary evidence of DoB before this can be resolved, which she has done this. But we've not heard anything back and the deadline for paying CGT on a property of which we completed the sale on 12/12/23 is fast approaching. Is there a way of obtaining a reference and paying the CGT without first resolving the government gateway log-on problem?

Hi there, We have just sold a rental property. When we bought it the roof was leaking and needed to be replaced and because of this we negotiated a reduction in the purchase price. It is arguable, therefore, that the roof replacement increased the value of the property. Are we able to deduct the cost of the replacement for CGT purposes? Thanks, Peter
