answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/07/2021 answer text <p>As with many tax policy announcements made at fiscal events, the change to SDLT was effective from the day of announcement. The £500,000 SDLT threshold applied to sales that have been completed or substantially performed between 8 July 2020 and 30 June 2021.</p><p> </p><p>The temporary SDLT relief was designed to stimulate immediate momentum in a property market where property transactions fell by as much as 50 per cent during the COVID-19 lockdown in March. This momentum in the property market has supported the jobs of people whose employment relies on custom from the property industry, such as retailers and tradespeople.</p><p> </p><p>The relief will not be backdated for those who purchased a property before the relief was introduced. Any changes to extend the relief retrospectively would inevitably lead to similar borderline cases for purchases completed at an earlier point.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 13/07/2021 13:04:30 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/06/2021 answer text <p>A refund of the higher rate of SDLT paid can be claimed if an old main residence is sold within three years of the purchase of the new main residence. For most people, three years is enough time to sell a previous main residence. However, someone who purchases a new main residence on or after 1 January 2017 will still be eligible to apply for a refund if exceptional circumstances meant they were unable to sell their previous main residence in three years and they sold the property as soon as possible after those exceptional circumstances ended.</p><p> </p><p>Where a person is not permitted to sell a previous main residence, such as due to fire safety issues, the circumstances may be considered exceptional. HMRC will consider each case on its own merits.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 17/06/2021 13:13:12 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
