Interest on loan to pay IHT anniversary charge

Postby brightonrock on Thu Feb 08, 2007 3:57 am

Can the trustees of a discretionary trust claim tax relief through SA900 on loan interest on a loan taken out to pay the 10 year IHT charge?

Can't see it covered anywhere.

Thanks

No.

Only executors can on interest payable on loans to pay IHT within year of the loan - s364 ICTA 1988.
