Hi All,
I have a questions that is proving very hard to find an answer to.
I have recently divorced and as part of the process had to liquidate 2 buy to let properties. The proceeds from the sale was given to my ex wife as way of settlement, but as the properties were in my name I will attract the CGT's next year.
I have already accounted for paying the CGT's, but it occurred to me that gain figure obtained from the sale may be taken into account by the Child Support Agency when they calculate my annual renewal next year.
I gave them a call and they advised me that they only take into account earned, and unearned income, but it's not clear to me whether the disposal of the 2 properties will be classified as unearned income or not.
If it is, it looks like my child support payments would be increased based on a cash sum I never received, which appears to be a bit unfair.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Matt
