C1 Scotland Inventory

  • Hi I have a couple of question on the C1 Form Inventory:

    1. Deceased rented property is still accruing rent how do I show that on the inventory?
    2. DWP have informed me that he is owed some unclaimed pension.

    I'm not sure if there is a specific way of writing these in the inventory or is it as simple as:

    Rent accrued at ....................   £ xxxxx
    DWP unclaimed pension          £ xxxxx

    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    Col.

    A pension underpayment is an asset and should be listed in the inventory. Perhaps include a description of the pension type.

    If the deceased was a landlord, any rent payment due accrued up to the date of death and not otherwise included in the inventory, should be included in the inventory. Again, a better description might be ‘income due in respect of rent payment of leased property’.


  • Hi buddy9,

    thank you for the information. I’m trying to ensure all his assets are listed but I don’t want the form rejected because of wording.

    The pension is the state pension and is money owed up to his death. The rent for his  property has accrued after his passing.

    many thanks for your advice and assistance.

    Colin.

    The inventory is a list of assets at the date of death. So rental income received or due in respect of the period after death is not an asset of the deceased and is not included in the C1. It is estate income https://www.gov.uk/probate-estate/reporting-the-estate
  • Hi buddy9,

    thank you clearing that up.

    regards,
