IHTM38294 - Notices of Determination (NODs): pursuing tax not in dispute in open enquiry cases


If you are pursuing tax not in dispute ( IHTM38022) in a case that is still subject to an enquiry ( IHTM29000) any NOD issued to the taxpayer should make it clear that we are seeking to determine the minimum amount payable.

Example 1.

Draft NOD A ( IHTM38295) should be amended to say :-

"The value transferred on that occasion was not less than £XXX and the amount of the chargeable transfer was not less than £XXX".

Example 2

Draft NOD B ( IHTM38296) should be amended to say :-

"The value transferred on that occasion was not less than £XXX".

Similar amendments should be made to the other draft NODs in all open enquiry cases where the amount of the chargeable transfer may increase.
