Course Details

Every accountant and tax adviser with personal tax clients will at some stage need to deal with the specific tax implications of death. The client could be a relative of the deceased, or the executor of their will, or a beneficiary receiving an inheritance, or a solicitor engaged to administer the estate. There are significant differences between the taxation of the living and the taxation of the deceased which all advisers in this area should keep themselves informed about in order to provide accurate and comprehensive advice

 

In this session Daragh O’Shaughnessy gives a detailed explanation of the taxation of estates for all stakeholders with practical examples illustrating issues that commonly arise:

  • Special computational rules in year of death
  • Revenue powers including time limits and penalties
  • Dealing with Revenue's new clearance procedures for estates
  • Taxation of beneficiaries
  • Dealing with funds, life policies and other investments
