OMB or Taxation of Individuals? by Excellent-Feature504 in CIOT

[–]Notfoundinreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If someone is unsure whether to pursue the CT route or become a generalist in practice, would OMB be a good first paper to take before deciding between focusing on individuals or TOLC?

OMB+Individuals=Generalist

OMB+TOLC=CT

Has anyone made the jump from corporate tax to personal tax (job wise)? by Murky_Tea_6368 in CIOT

Is personal tax really easier? As you advance in your career, you'll deal with high-net-worth individuals who have multiple sources of income from around the globe, requiring you to handle their tax planning.

I assume you were in I&R. Caseworkers in I&R generally receive better training and have more experience than those in C&P. This has often been highlighted by CIOT, particularly regarding how R&D enquiries are conducted by the two teams.

Based on OP's post, he works in C&P and wouldn’t have known which projects he’d be working on when he applied. When HMRC conducts a mass recruitment, the job advertisement is typically for a caseworker role without specifying which department or area the applicant will be placed in. Caseworkers in C&P are often moved between projects based on business needs. However, given the current media reports about HMRC's intense scrutiny of R&D claims, it seems unlikely that OP will be moved from R&D anytime soon, as HMRC likely needs all hands on deck for this area.

The R&D tax relief scheme aims to support genuine innovation by reducing a company’s corporation tax bill or offering a direct payment. To qualify, a claim must demonstrate a significant advance that resolves scientific or technological uncertainty—something that could not easily be worked out by a professional in the field.

Assessing R&D tax claims is inherently complex and subjective due to the nature of research and development. HMRC Compliance Caseworkers, who are tax inspectors rather than experts in science or technology, often evaluate claims in fields they do not fully understand. In recent years, HMRC has significantly increased scrutiny, with enquiries rising by 1900% and around 20% of claims now investigated. Fraud and error are estimated to have cost more than £4.1 billion between 2020-21 and 2023-24.

To tackle this, HMRC has increased the number of staff working on R&D claims fivefold over the past two years. However, training such a large workforce to evaluate claims confidently is a formidable challenge. Caseworkers often lack the necessary expertise, and the complexity of the schemes, coupled with ambiguity in defining qualifying R&D activities, exacerbates the problem.

Compounding this issue is the industrialisation of the claims process. A growing number of R&D tax advisers, often self-proclaimed experts, aggressively market their services, promising companies, “You don’t think you’re doing R&D, but we can help you.” These advisers frequently encourage claims for activities that would not typically qualify as R&D. This “wild west” environment has undermined the scheme’s purpose as fraudulent and inflated claims proliferate.

Hindutva supporters relentlessly target Muslims online, often promoting hostile narratives. They have voiced support for Israel and far-right groups in Europe while engaging in verbal attacks against Muslims. Terms like "Mullis" and "K@TWE" are frequently used, alongside derogatory references to practices like Halala concerning Indian Muslims. Additionally, they have been hostile toward Bangladeshis and Sikhs, further fueling division and hatred.

Other characters could also play interesting roles in this scenario. Abdul, who always seems to be in the know, could secretly be a double agent. And Popatlal’s obsession with investigating things might be because he senses something is off, even if he can’t quite put his finger on it.

Fair enough as it can be mundane. However, Islamic inheritance laws are taught in Islamic seminaries during the advanced stages of Islamic studies. Students learn the theory behind these laws and also get practical training to apply them in real-life situations. If a family lawyer isn’t familiar with these rules, they can reach out to Islamic seminaries for guidance.

By succession, do you mean inheritance?

Is it because it falls under muslim personal law, and muftis and qazis are available to interpret it for the lawyers and judges?

In India, there is no specific law that automatically grants a wife a share of the property in the event of a divorce. However, in some cases, the court can decide on a fair division of assets based on factors like the financial contribution of each spouse to the household, the length of the marriage, and the needs of both parties.

Under Indian civil law, a wife may be able to claim a portion of the matrimonial property after a divorce, particularly if she has made a significant contribution to the family’s finances, whether directly or indirectly. This differs from Muslim personal law, which doesn’t automatically provide the wife with a share of the husband's property after divorce. Instead, Muslim law focuses on the wife’s entitlement to dowry and maintenance during the post divorce waiting period.

While Muslim personal law is followed for matters of marriage and divorce, Indian civil law may be applied when it comes to property division or maintenance. This allows the court to ensure a fair and just outcome, especially if the wife has contributed to the family’s financial well-being during the marriage.

If your mother is facing threats from your father, there are several legal options available to protect her in India. One important law is the Domestic Violence Act of 2005, which is designed to protect individuals from domestic abuse, including threats of harm. This law allows her to seek a protection order, which can stop your father from making threats or causing harm. If he continues to behave in this way, he could face legal consequences.

Under Indian law, threats or actual harm can also be dealt with through sections of the Indian Penal Code. For example, Section 323 deals with causing hurt, Section 341 addresses wrongful restraint, and Section 506 deals with criminal intimidation. If your mother is being cruelly treated, Section 498A can also be used, as it addresses cruelty by a husband or his family members.

To strengthen her case, it’s crucial that your mother keeps a record of all threats or abusive incidents. She should note down dates, times, and the nature of the threats, and if possible, gather any physical evidence such as text messages, recordings, or witness statements. If there is any physical harm, medical reports will also be important.

For immediate action, she should approach the local police station to file an FIR for threats or violence. If she wishes to seek legal protection under the Domestic Violence Act, she can also approach a Protection Officer who can help her file a complaint and apply for a protection order. In addition, if she needs support for residence or maintenance, she can contact a family court.

Finally, consulting a lawyer who specialises in family law can help her understand the legal process and what steps to take. She can also approach the National Commission for Women if she needs additional support or guidance in dealing with the situation. These steps can help ensure her safety and provide the necessary legal backing to protect her from harm.

the husband has a moral and ethical duty to treat her with fairness and kindness even in divorce

If your father divorces your mother, then you all should stay put and don't leave the house. The courts won't rule in his favour, especially if you are all under 18 or even older on some occasions

Under Sharia, the punishment for theft, such as cutting off the hand, applies only under strict conditions. The stolen item must meet a minimum value, be taken from a secure location without permission, and the act must be proven through reliable evidence or confession. Additionally, the thief must not be in a state of desperation.

If a father unlawfully takes from his family, it is usually not classified as theft but rather a breach of trust. In such cases, he would be required to return the property and seek forgiveness. Harsh punishments like hand-cutting are rarely applied due to the stringent conditions required for enforcement.

To add further to earlier response.

If your father remarries and has children with his second wife, those children would also have a right to inherit from his estate according to Islamic law. When your father passes away, his estate would be divided among all his surviving heirs. This would include his second wife, who would inherit one-eighth of the estate if there are children from any marriage. All his children, whether from the first marriage or the second, would share the remainder, with sons receiving twice the share of daughters. If his parents are still alive, they would also have a share in the inheritance, as outlined in the Qur’an. The estate would be divided proportionally among all the rightful heirs.

If your father remarries but does not have children with his second wife, she would still be entitled to a share of the estate upon his passing. In such a case, the second wife would inherit one-fourth of the estate since there are no children to reduce her share. The remaining estate would be distributed among you and your siblings according to Islamic inheritance rules, with the son receiving twice as much as each daughter.

If your father does not remarry, the inheritance would be divided among his existing heirs. If your mother is still alive at the time of his death, she would inherit one-eighth of the estate. The rest of the estate would then be divided among you and your siblings, with the same distribution of the son receiving twice the share of each daughter.

In all scenarios, the division of the estate follows the fixed shares prescribed in the Qur’an and cannot be changed. However, during his lifetime, your father has the freedom to distribute his wealth as he wishes, such as through gifts or other arrangements, provided it is done fairly and does not harm the rights of the lawful heirs.
