Stamp Duty on Shared Ownership

Sotts
Posts: 254 Forumite

Hi all. I completed on my purchase of SO property in February 2021.
I know I'm exempt from paying stamp duty due to the SDLT holiday and purchasing less than 80% but should i still receive some sort of certificate?
I opted to pay up front for future shares (still £0 as i purchased during the sdlt holiday). But not sure if i should be getting some sort of confirmation from the Land Registry.
Thanks in advance

You / your conveyancer should have filed a land transaction return and received an SDLT5 certificate from HMRC. The SDLT5 certificate goes to the Land Registry in order to register your ownership.1
