During probate procedures, which form is typically returned to HMRC?

• A. PA1P form
• B. IHT421 form
• C. Will
• D. Affidavit

Answer: (B)

In probate, tax matters are handled by filing inheritance tax forms with HMRC. The IHT421 form is the document used to report the estate’s details to HMRC as part of settling any inheritance tax. Executors send this form to HMRC, and HMRC uses it to calculate tax due or to issue clearance. The other options don’t involve HMRC: PA1P is the probate application sent to the Probate Registry, a Will is the deceased’s last instructions, and an Affidavit is a sworn statement used in court proceedings.
