  • RE: Rental income transfer to my wife

    Hi Anita1967
    I confirm that form 17 is not applicable as they only relate to jointly owned property where there is a change in beneficial ownership from the standard 50/50% to an unequal split  (e.g 80/20%).
    As you are the sole owner and are not transferring any of the beneficial ownership of the property to your Husband you do not need to submit form 17.
    As long as your trust deed clearly reflects the split of income you can declare your revised share from the date of the Trust Deed.
    HMRC do not need to see the Trust Deed unless it is asked for.  
    Thankyou.

    In column 2, please enter the reference number payer of the lump sum payer and in column 3, the date on which you received the lump sum.  Please also complete part D if UK tax has been deducted.
    Thankyou.
  • RE: Deductible Items from calculating the capital gain

    Hi
    You can deduct the stamp duty costs and the solicotr fee.
    The mortgage fee is not in relation to the actual sale of the property and is therefore not allowable.
    You cannot deduct any outstanding mortgage either.
    Thankyou.
  • RE: Rental income transfer to my wife

    Hi John2023
    Thank you for your question.
    This declaration is sufficient provided it is signed by witnesses and dated and should be submitted by mail with Form 17.
    May I also highly recommend that you read the guidance on Form 17 from our .GOV website to ensure all criteria is met.
