Inheritance tax obligations for beneficiaries born abroad

I am executor of a will in which the sole beneficiary is a spouse who has been domiciled in England since 1975, but was born overseas.


I have read many pages of guidance about IHT and cannot find out if the beneficiary will be exempted from this tax.


I have spoken to three different people on the probate helpline. None of them could give me a clear answer, and advise which of the many IHT forms to complete.


Please help if you can.
