Gifts out of surplus income
Most people will know that they are entitled to give £3,000 in any one year (or £6,000 if they have not made a gift in the previous year) without there being any inheritance tax implications. If you make gifts over this amount and you die within 7 years of making that gift then the value of that gift is added to your estate at death for inheritance tax purposes.
