TAX PLANNING TO PROTECT ASSETS FROM CARE FEES
In effect, our current system of long term care
funding can be 100% tax on all assets above the state support threshold
and some individuals will spend all of their capital down to this
support level.
The legitimate avoidance of any tax will have the
effect of increasing the value of an individuals estate and by definition
this will assist in reducing the financial implications of funding
care fees. There are a wide range of measures available to mitigate
income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax all of which make
the funding of care fees more effective.
