IHTM11076 - Annuity to spouse or civil partner: annuity payable by the surviving partners of a business
Where the deceased바카라 사이트™s interest in a partnership (IHTM25101) passes to the surviving partners subject to an obligation to pay an annuity (IHTM16211) to the deceased바카라 사이트™s spouse or civil partner (IHTM11032), you can treat the value of the deceased바카라 사이트™s partnership interest as exempt to the market value of that annuity. If the whole of the partnership interest qualifies for 100% business relief (IHTM25131) or agricultural relief (IHTM24001), there will be no value to exempt.
Although the annuity may not be enforceable by the spouse or civil partner - Re Miller바카라 사이트™s Agreement [1947, Ch 615] - you should not use this possibility to deny exemption provided the annuity is actually paid. You can accept this if you have confirmation that the surviving partners have paid the annuity up to the date of your enquiry.
