  • IF the income you received was taxable (and declarable to TCO) you should receive an R185 form. You should then decalre the gross amount shown on the R185.

    If it is not taxable then you do not need to declare the capital (the inheritance amount) but you do need to declare the interest if added with any "other income" within the household it totals over £300 per year.
