Own assets jointly and save tax<\/h3><\/div> <\/div> <\/div> [vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1520460463531{padding-left: 5% !important;}”]If you make a \u00a320,200 capital gain in this tax year you will pay tax on \u00a310,100. (\u00a320,200 less the \u00a310,100 annual exemption). If you had owned those same assets jointly, say with your spouse or partner, and they had no other capital gains this year, then you would pay no tax.<\/p>\n

Don’t forget the kids – \u00a310,200 pa of tax free gains! Children are entitled to make \u00a310,200 of tax free gains in their own name. It may be possible for parents to purchase investments with promising capital growth in the name of their children and save significant Capital Gains Tax when the investments are sold.<\/p>\n
