Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) in the UK is often a considerable expense, especially for those purchasing mixed-use properties. A recent tax court case saw HMRC lose, setting a precedent for how mixed-use relief can be claimed. In today's video, we'll delve into the specifics of this game-changing decision.

Key Dates: Keep an eye on when the court decision was made, as this could affect your eligibility to claim back tax or alter your filing approach. The case was decided on October 5, 2022.

Tax Forms: To claim the mixed-use relief on stamp duty, you'll typically use SDLT1 and SDLT4 forms, but after this court case, the instructions may need revisiting.

Example 1: Sarah, who bought a property with both commercial and residential units, initially had her mixed-use relief claim rejected. Due to this court case, she can now reapply and likely get a considerable tax rebate.

Example 2: John is planning to buy a mixed-use building. Armed with the knowledge from this court case, he can now structure his purchase in a way that is more likely to qualify for mixed-use relief, potentially saving thousands in stamp duty.
