The Chancellor's October 2007 Pre-Budget announcement made some improvement to the inheritance tax situation for married couples and civil partners.

These couples can now automatically carry forward any unused percentage of their partner's nil-rate band inheritance tax allowance. This means these couples can pass on up to £650,000 of assets without incurring inheritance tax. Amounts over £650,000 for couples, and over £325,000 for single people or cohabiters, will still incur an inheritance tax liability of 40%.

The value of your estate includes all of the assets and cash that you own. People often think that the family home, properties abroad, cars, works of art or shares might be exempt. This is not the case. If you are a single person or a cohabiter, and want to work out your inheritance tax liability click here.

The changes made to the inheritance tax rules in the October 2007 Pre-Budget announcement mean that the families of many married couples and civil partners will now fall out of the inheritance tax trap, or will have vastly-reduced liabilities.

However, inheritance tax is only one of the threats to a family's wealth. Probably a bigger threat is that of having to fund long-term care costs.

One-in-four of us will require long-term care at some point in our life, and Writing a Will can be used to protect significant portions of your estate from the ravages of longer-term care costs. Whereas inheritance tax threatens only 40% of the value of your estate over the nil rate band (currently £325,000), care costs can reduce the total estate value down to £14,250, leaving very little for loved ones to inherit. For more details on the threat of long-term care cost, and how to protect your loved ones, follow our link to Long-Term Care Protection.
