Hi all

If probate hasn't been submitted yet and with the new inheritance tax limits coming in, I presume the new limit is in effect i.e. there's a 400K limit in place for a grant of probate being submitted from this day forth? Could someone please clarify?
 
It seems to be in effect from today but I don't know if that means for deaths from today, valuation dates from today, probate applications submitted from today etc...
 

The date of an inheritance is usually the date of death of the person leaving the inheritance.

These dates determine the Capital Acquisitions Tax (CAT) rates and the group threshold that apply.
 
Thank you! I wonder can that be open to interpretation? "Usually" - I wonder if that's even if probate hasn't been submitted?
