    A quick call to the tax office will clear this up as the replies in this thread shows no one actually knows, we're all totally clueless on this question, as is true on most other threads.

    You may as well just ask someone down the pub.

    Cheers fj

    I think it's fairly obvious who knows what they're talking about on this thread.

    Myself and booksurr are right. Its those with the weird accounting idea/schemes which are wrong but I wish them luck when HMRC come knocking

    Quite right go direct to HMRC now before doing anything, everyone else's opinion my just be hearsay.

    Always best to go to those who set the rules and will know the answer.

    I agree with this.

    The HMRC aren't interested in whose assets are generating income, just who is receiving it.

    It's INCOME tax and the income is hers.

    Can you point me to which Act covers this, and the relevant sections? Or perhaps just link to to the HMRC manual?
