Since you have posted this to the UK tax forum, then it's UK tax laws that apply. Most of the respondents are posting US tax law; you can tell by the "$" in their postings.

In the UK, you can give any amount you like in excess of our pitifully small amount of £3,000. If you die within seven years of making the gift, your estate may have to pay inheritance tax on the gift. If you outlive your gift by 7 years, there's no tax. There's loads of information about this and exceptions to the rule on www.hmrc.gov.uk. Call Inland Revenue or look at the site below for more info.

To the other respondents: Please check to see what country the question is from before pontificating. Also, the US limit this year is $12,000, not $10,000 as many people wrongly stated.

It used to be £3,000 in any one year, however if they have not received any the previous year, you can give £6,000 but check with the Tax Office first.

Are you in the UK?
Our Tax Allowance is £3,000 per annum to each Grandchild, OR £250 per annum, but not both.
The rules for giving to Children is slightly different, with you be liable to any Tax payable on their earned interest.
Best to give Inland Revenue a call, or look them up on the web. It can be a minefield., particularly with Inheritance Tax.


supremecritic
i think its about £8,000 but changes if the gift is shares

I gave just under £10,000 to my brother in the uK -elsewhere I am not sure, although I live in Australia now and I think it is the equivalent sum here


andrew m
to me as much as you like i wont tell a sole

You can give as much as you want. The problem is when you file a return and claim it as a deduction. Limit the deduction to whatever is the recommended maximum to avoid a red flag that might trigger an audit. For example, if you claim you make $25,000 a year and then claim a gift deduction for $30,000, even I would be a tad suspicious of that one.

Having said that, send me all your money and dicker over the tax deduction later.

You can give $10,000 per individual per year. For instance if you want to give money to your son and he has kids, you can give $10,000 to each of them without incurring a tax issue, or they for that matter.


Mark C
start by giving me £10 today then £20 monday, £30 tuesday etc until you start paying tax. That way you will know the answer.
