About this lesson
This lesson covers when IHT becomes due depending on whether it's a lifetime transfer or death estate, who actually pays HMRC versus who bears the tax burden, and practical planning ideas like generation-skipping gifts, lifetime transfers, and the seven-year survival rule. Understanding these mechanics is essential for the Taxation papers and will help you advise clients on timing and structure to reduce their overall tax exposure.
