Lifetime ISAs guide

@eskbanker sorry I have to ask you again here. I've seen one of your answers in this thread about LISA providers allowing over 40s to open a new account to transfer in or not.

I am opening an account with Dodl and yes it seems it has allowed me to do this (though the money is still on the way). It says I cannot use the account until the money is transferred in. I suppose once the transfer is in, I can add this year's LISA allowance in anytime before 6 Apr 2026, is this right?

Yes, they can't allow it before the transfer is received as this is what will make the account legitimate for someone over 40. You'll have the option to add money as soon as the transfer history paperwork is processed.
