Question about gifting - Annual Tax free Allowance and PET's

in Cutting tax
I wonder if anyone can help me answer this question?
I have an unused Annual Tax Free Allowance of £3,000 from the last tax year which I can carry forward and use in this tax year making £6.000 in Total. My question is can I make an additional PET to the same recipient so they would receive both my Annual Tax free Allowance and another amount (PET).
Thanks

Yes. You can gift as much as you like. In your situation the first £6,000 will be exempt and the remainder will be a PET.I am an Independent Financial Adviser.

But by making a PET to the same person will that negate the Tax Free Allowances already gifted this year and make them PET tooHappyHarry said:Yes. You can gift as much as you like.0 -
