For pre-SA years partnerships were assessable in a single sum – see EM7001. This is still true of a discovery assessment made on or after 6 April 1998. Interest is chargeable under the SA version of S86 and will run from the 31 January following the year of assessment.

Note: For “new” partnerships commencing on or after 6 April 1994 (see EM7001) tax is assessable on the individual not the partnership.
