If you’re dealing with the estate of someone who died before January 1st 2022, you still need to complete the IHT205 (or IHT400 form where required) in order to report the value of the estate to HM Revenue and Customs, as outlined in the enclosed guide and the digital resources in your DIY Probate Pack.
Please use the updated IHT205 form below rather than the version in your DIY Probate Pack
For deaths that occurred on or after January 1st, the IHT205 has now been replaced with an online HMRC estate value report for inheritance tax, so you can disregard references to the IHT205 found within the DIY Probate Pack and the digital resources.
You can visit https://www.tax.service.gov.uk/guidance/check-inheritance-tax-due/date-of-death in order to complete the online report.
You will still need to provide details of asset values, so the advice on how to do that still stands.
Use Version ‘PA1P Probate Application (01.22V2)’, which replaces the older (12.19) Version.
If you have any queries please call 0116 2795044 or email sarahb@berkeleyweston.co.uk
Completing both the online and paper-based IHT forms are included within the Assisted Probate Service if you need further help
