IHT Question .

Can fees paid to solicitors by Executers be recovered from IHT already paid .

Perhaps you can give a bit more detail about the circumstances.  It is not clear to me what you mean.

It would appear that a refund of overpaid Inheritance Tax is possible:

If you pay more money than the final bill says the estate owes, HMRC will refund the excess after you’ve been given probate (confirmation in Scotland).

No, solicitors fees are not deductible.

Thanks all .
Yes discovered solicitors fees are not deductible from IHT owed, only debts at time of death .
