Transferring rental income to spouse

[Dev_1]

Morning,

Is it possible to transfer rental income to spouse via a declaration of trust?.

If so any suggestion how one should read & how is it defined for how long my partner would be entitled to the rent. Would we be able to state this I.e 12 months, 18 months, 24 months.

Apart from the declaration of trust are there any other forms which we would need to HMRC?.

I am/would be 100% owner on the title.

I am higher rate tax payer and she is basic.

Both currently employed.

Many thanks

A transfer from one spouse to the other only of rental income is not effective for income tax purposes. It gives rise to a settlement.

It is necessary to transfer a beneficial interest to the other spouse.
