IHTM14874 - Future payments: payments outstanding at death

Where the transferor dies before the payments are finally made, it falls upon the lprs ( IHTM05012) to complete the series.

You can

  • give an allowance in valuing the transferor’s estate immediately before the death for the non-gratuitous part of the remaining payments,

but

  • charge tax on the gratuitous portion.

Review the separate instructions at the liabilities section of the manual. ( IHTM28110)
