ISA RULES
We have set out the 2009/10 ISA tax rules including the changes set out in the 2009 Budget.
The overall maximum ISA allowance for the over 50s has increased to £10,200 for the 2009/10 tax year on 6th October 2009.
The maximum total annual contribution is £7,200 (£10,200 if you are over 50) of which half can be invested in a Cash ISA.
The maximum allowable cash portion is £3,600 (£5,100 if you are over 50).
The mini and maxi ISA distinction no longer exists. Any maxi or mini ISA is now simply called an ISA.
Mini stocks and shares ISA's and any stocks and shares component of a maxi ISA have become a stocks and shares ISA.
Mini cash ISA's and any cash component of a maxi ISA has become a cash ISA.
The full £7,200 allowance can be invested in stocks and shares (£10,200 if you are over 50), or you can choose up to £3,600 into a cash ISA (£5,100 if you are over 50).
For example; you save £1,200 in a cash ISA at the start of the tax year. In the same year, you could invest up to another £2,400 in the same cash ISA or up to £6,000 in a stocks and shares ISA with either the same or a different provider.
Funds are transferable from a cash ISA into a stocks and shares ISA, giving your money a better chance to grow over the medium to long term. Making the transfer won’t affect your ISA allowance, so if you make a transfer from a previous year’s ISA, it will not use any of the current year’s allowance. In addition, there will be no tax to pay on the returns you earn from your ISA. However you cannot transfer from a stocks and shares ISA to a cash ISA.
PEPs (Personal Equity Plans) has automatically become a stocks and shares ISA.
