Training and events

We are pleased to announce that we will be holding 2 tax forums in May. These forums are for solicitors and conveyancers who file and pay Land Transaction Tax (LTT) and who regularly use our services.

We have listened to your feedback and these forums will have a change in format. They will focus on enabling you to file your LTT returns efficiently and to provide clarity in areas that you have identified to us.

The forums will consist of training workshops in the following areas:

• Higher rate transactions – replacement of main residence, civil partner or spouse buying alone, acquisition following separation.
• Linked transactions - what a linked transaction is, how to complete the return, and how to calculate the tax.
• Mixed use properties - Garden and grounds.

You will have the opportunity to attend all three workshops. In addition you can give feedback on our services and areas of LTT where you would like us to provide further training and support.

The forums will be no longer than 2 to 3 hours and provide you with information you need to file LTT easily.
