Details

The Chancellor announced in the Autumn Statement 2013 that the Inheritance Tax (IHT) service would be made available online.

The purpose of this research was to understand the current IHT process from a customer perspective and to help inform the new digital process by understanding key incentives or barriers to completion online.

The research was undertaken by Carat UK, on behalf of HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC).
