Can my parents gift my family of 4 €24000

I won’t get the kids involved!!
It depends on the age of the kids and circumstances.

If you had a kid in college for example you could suggest that they pay their college fees with a €3k gift from grandparents and whatever you do with the €3k you don’t have to pay on fees is your own business.

For minor kids without financial capacity it would clearly fall foul of the anti-avoidance measures set out above.


Otherwise I think people worry too much about using up their lifetime allowance early for two reasons:
1) money has a time value. €100 today is worth more than €100 in twenty years
2) over the course of decades the lifetime exemptions are highly likely to be adjusted upwards.

Hi. How do you record these 3000 gifts pa and where do you store the record?
Can you give the 3000 as a 250 euro payment per month into a savings policy. So policy in name of child , payment from parents account.
Thanks
