1. If you were not the owner in 2002-03, why did you receive the income?
2. I assume you received a share (50%?) of the rental income from 1999-00 to 2001-02, and this was included in your Tax Returns?
3. Your brother has 2 CGT disposals - the first to you in October 1999, and the second to your wife in January 2004. If PPR relief applies, the first disposal is likely to be fully exempt. Likewise the second disposal may be fully relieved, depending on the amounts involved. The MV in October 1999 and January 2004 is needed. Or did your brother gift his remaining share to your wife at the same time as you in 2001-02?
4. I assume there are good reason(s) why your brother has given away this property - and not to take advantage of your wife's lower income tax rates?
