EL 7: When property A sold
or “Rules for using leftover tax deductions when you sell a rental property”

You could also call this:

“Handling transferred money when selling fully-taxed items”

This section of the law has been removed. It used to be about how to handle money that was moved before when you sell something that is fully taxed. The section was called ‘Treatment of previously transferred amounts on fully-taxed disposals’. It was part of the rules about when and how much to tax in the Income Tax Act 2007. The government took this section out of the law on 23 March 2020, but the change applies from 1 April 2019.
