💍 What is the Marriage Allowance? The Marriage Allowance is a tax benefit that allows a spouse or civil partner to transfer a portion of their unused personal allowance to their higher-earning partner. This can reduce the overall tax bill of the couple. ✍ How to Apply for the Marriage Allowance? Apply online through the HMRC website. You’ll need both partners’ National Insurance numbers and a form of identification for the applicant (e.g., P60, payslips, or passport details). 👉 Link - https://lnkd.in/eQDt2Y95 💡 Additional Considerations If your circumstances change (e.g., income levels change, divorce, or separation), you should inform HMRC to adjust the allowance accordingly. #marriageallowance #taxallowances #marriedcouples #civilpartners #taxsavings

Senior Solicitor at Herrington Carmichael Solicitors specialising in Wills, Lasting Powers of Attorney, Deputyship, Estate Administration and Trusts.
One of the questions I get asked the most by my Clients is the following: Can I transfer my home to my children? Whilst I appreciate my Clients concerns with regards to the payment of Inheritance Tax (IHT) and/or care fees, there are so many reasons why I advise Clients to think carefully before doing this and I list a few of these below: - If they fall out with their Children they could lose their home. - If their Children are married and the marriage breaks down, their home will become an asset of the divorce. - It could be deemed a Gift with Reservation of Benefit and ineffective for IHT purposes. - They will lose control of their home. - It could be deemed a Deliberate Deprivation of Asset for care fees and still be taken into account when being assessed for funding. This is not an exhaustive list of the considerations but highlight some of the key factors which need to be taken into account. It is so important for individuals to take advice if they are thinking of going down this route to ensure they are aware of all of the implications before proceeding so they are not caught out in the future. #gifting #transferringyourhome #legaladvice #privateclientsolicitor #herringtoncarmichael

Question we get sometimes: what if you already have an Estate Plan with a Living Trust, but you need to make some changes to it? We classify this as "Trust Amendment", and we can totally help you out with that! Reasons you might need a Trust Amendment: 🔅Marriage or divorce 🔅Birth or death of a child 🔅Change in desired beneficiaries or trustee 🔅You make a LARGE purchase 🔅Change in asset distribution instructions For minor changes, a simple amendment will suffice, but if you need to make substantial changes - like adding a new spouse as a beneficiary, then a complete Restatement might be necessary. Regardless of what you need, we can walk you through any changes step by step. We're here for you. Call us today: (909) 982-3199.

"I'm separating from my spouse, so when should I redo my Will?" The answer is immediately! Once divorced, your Will remains valid. However, your spouse is now treated as if they are dead. Whilst you might like that idea, this can have a serious effect on your estate. If your Will doesn't specify what happens in the event of your ex-partners death, the rules of intestacy could apply. The real danger period, however, is during a separation when the terms of your Will are still valid. You may not wish for them to benefit, but they still would. As with any changes to your circumstances, we would suggest you write a new Will as a priority to ensure the beneficiaries are who you want - and not your ex. The Financial Conduct Authority does not regulate Wills, Trusts, Estate Planning, Lasting Powers of Attorney and Inheritance Tax Planning.
