corkman Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 I live and work here, pay plenty of taxes etc., work permits and visas etc. all legit and up to date. 1. How quickly can I set up an LTF? 2. Can I just walk into the bank and say "here is a wedge of cash, please set up an LTF for me"? 3. If I start an LTF with any given organisation, can I change? I really need to research this, I know - but with two business days left before years end, I need a crash course!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fletchsmile Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 The 2 quickest ways would be to 1) go into a fund management company: I would recommend Aberdeen or 2) your bank. Going direct to the fund manager is probably a bit quicker than a bank, as they will have to submit your account opening forms and purchase request to the fund manager anyway. You will need the usual ID stuff: passport, work permit, etc salary slips would also be useful. You will then need to complete account opening forms, and forms to purchase the LTF fund. You can have any number of LTFs with different providers. You can invest more than the 500k, just that you will only get tax relief as a maximum on the higher of 500k or 15% of salary. Go to Aberdeen with all your paperwork would be quickest. For your other thread on reclaiming tax, you'll probably need to get it done in your tax return, given the late timing. As long as you make your investment before 31 Dec you'll be OK. If you miss then this year's allowance is wasted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
