Hi all,
My wife 's parents passed away over 2 years ago and left their estate to my wife and 2 siblings. The house has now been sold and the funds are currently in the estate account (probate has all been finalized). We would like to take our share of the inheritance so we can invest it for our kids future.
My question is ... is it best to draw down our share to our joint current account and transfer it out to the saving schemes ( statesavings, zurich) or is there a better way of doing it ? What would be the norm be ?
Also we just had twins and my wife is on maternity leave, she may also take the 16 weeks unpaid after as things are very busy. My question is ... would having this inheritance effect her maternity pay ?
Thank you,
