Deprivation of capital
Fri 27-Jan-06 03:50 PM |
My client has just been disallowed HB/CTB on the grounds of deliberately depriving herself of capital.Two years ago, she gave her son £50,000 to help him purchase a holiday home in France.This was on the understanding that she and her husband used it for holidays which they do at least twice a year.At the time she gave her son the money she was not claiming HB/CTB and has only recently made a claim. I feel that she has grounds for appeal.Any ideas?
