Help to Buy ISA
Options

Hi,
First ever post!!!!
I have a help to buy ISA myself and my partner is looking to open one, we are both first time buyers.
I am currently paying the £200 per month into my Help to buy ISA plus some more into a regular saver but anything i save above that is going into a savings accounts which doesn't pay much interest. My partner wouldn't be able to pay in £200 per month
My question is, would it be ok for me to transfer any excess savings, once i have maxed out my monthly contributions to my ISA & regular saver, to my partner for her to put into her help to buy ISA?
Thanks
Martin

Are you under 40? A LISA would seem more use to you than a HTB ISA if you have excess money?0
