- (a) for a period of account (“the relevant period of account”)—
- (i) the calculation under section 849 in relation to an individual partner (“A”) (see subsection (6)) produces a profit for the firm, and
- (ii) A's share of that profit determined under section 850 or 850A (“A's profit share”) is a profit or is neither a profit nor a loss,
- (b) a non-individual partner (“B”) (see subsection (6)) has a share of the profit for the firm mentioned in paragraph (a)(i) (“B's profit share”) which is a profit (see subsection (7)), and
- (c) condition X or Y is met.
- (2) Condition X is that it is reasonable to suppose that—
- (a) amounts representing A's deferred profit (see subsection (8)) are included in B's profit share, and
- (b) in consequence, both A's profit share and the relevant tax amount (see subsection (9)) are lower than they would otherwise have been.
- (3) Condition Y is that—
- (a) B's profit share exceeds the appropriate notional profit (see subsections (10) to (17)),
- (b) A has the power to enjoy B's profit share (“A's power to enjoy”) (see subsections (18) to (21)), and
- (c) it is reasonable to suppose that—
- (i) the whole or any part of B's profit share is attributable to A's power to enjoy, and
- (ii) both A's profit share and the relevant tax amount (see subsection (9)) are lower than they would have been in the absence of A's power to enjoy.
- (4) A's profit share is increased by so much of the amount of B's profit share as, it is reasonable to suppose, is attributable to—
- (a) A's deferred profit, or
- (b) A's power to enjoy,
as determined on a just and reasonable basis.
But any increase by virtue of paragraph (b) is not to exceed the amount of the excess mentioned in subsection (3)(a) after deducting from that amount any increase by virtue of paragraph (a).
- (5) If B is chargeable to income tax, in applying sections 850 to 850B in relation to B for the relevant period of account, such adjustments are to be made as are just and reasonable to take account of the increase in A's profit share under subsection (4).
(This subsection does not apply for the purposes of subsection (7) or section 850D(7).)
- (6) A partner in a firm is an “individual partner” if the partner is an individual and “non-individual partner” is to be read accordingly; but “non-individual partner” does not include the firm itself where it is treated as a partner under section 863I (allocation of profit to AIFM firm).
- (7) B's profit share is to be determined by applying section 850 and, if relevant, section 850A in relation to B for the relevant period of account (whether or not B is chargeable to income tax) on the assumption that the calculation under section 849 in relation to B produces the profit for the firm mentioned in subsection (1)(a)(i).
- (8) “A's deferred profit”—
- (a) is any remuneration or other benefits or returns the provision of which to A has been deferred (whether pending the meeting of any conditions (including conditions which may never be met) or otherwise), and
- (b) includes A's share (as determined on a just and reasonable basis) of any remuneration or other benefits or returns the provision of which to A and one or more other persons, taken together, has been deferred (whether pending the meeting of any conditions (including conditions which may never be met) or otherwise).
- (9) “The relevant tax amount” is the total amount of tax which, apart from this section, would be chargeable in respect of A and B's income as partners in the firm.
- (10) “The appropriate notional profit” is the sum of the appropriate notional return on capital and the appropriate notional consideration for services.
- (11) “The appropriate notional return on capital” is—
- (a) the return which B would receive for the relevant period of account in respect of B's contribution to the firm were the return to be calculated on the basis mentioned in subsection (12), less
- (b) any return actually received for the relevant period of account in respect of B's contribution to the firm which is not included in B's profit share.
- (12) The return mentioned in subsection (11)(a) is to be calculated on the basis that it is a return which is—
- (a) by reference to the time value of an amount of money equal to B's contribution to the firm, and
- (b) at a rate which (in all the circumstances) is a commercial rate of interest.
- (13) For the purposes of subsections (11) and (12) B's contribution to the firm is amount A determined under section 108 of ITA 2007 (meaning of “contribution to the LLP”).
- (14) That section is to be applied—
- (a) reading references to the individual as references to B and references to the LLP as references to the firm, and
- (b) with the omission of—
- (i) subsections (5)(b) and (9), and
- (ii) in subsection (6) the words from “but” to the end.
- (15) “The appropriate notional consideration for services” is—

- (b) any amount actually received in consideration for any such services which is not included in B's profit share.
- (16) The consideration mentioned in subsection (15)(a) is to be calculated on the basis that B is not a partner in the firm and is acting at arm's length from the firm.
- (17) Any services, the provision of which involves any partner in the firm in addition to B, are to be ignored for the purposes of subsection (15).
- (18) A has the power to enjoy B's profit share if—
- (a) A is connected with B by virtue of a provision of section 993 of ITA 2007 (meaning of “connected” persons) other than subsection (4) of that section,
- (b) A is a party to arrangements the main purpose, or one of the main purposes, of which is to secure that an amount included in B's profit share—
- (i) is charged to corporation tax rather than income tax, or
- (ii) is otherwise subject to the provisions of the Corporation Tax Acts rather than the provisions of the Income Tax Acts, or
- (c) any of the enjoyment conditions (see subsection (20)) is met in relation to B's profit share or any part of B's profit share.
- (19) In subsection (18)(b) “arrangements” includes any agreement, understanding, scheme, transaction or series of transactions (whether or not legally enforceable).

- (b) B makes a payment to the firm representing any income tax for which the firm is liable by virtue of section 863I in respect of the amount of the increase allocated to it.
- (23) For income tax purposes, the payment—
- (a) is not to be income of any partner in the firm, and
- (b) is not to be taken into account in calculating any profits or losses of B or otherwise deducted from any income of B.

- (a) at a time during a period of account (“the relevant period of account”) in respect of a firm, an individual (“A”) personally performs services for the firm,

- (c) a non-individual partner (“B”) in the firm (see subsection (6)) has a share of that profit (“B's profit share”) which is a profit (see subsection (7)),
- (d) it is reasonable to suppose that A would have been a partner in the firm at a time during the relevant period of account or any earlier period of account but for the provision contained in section 850C (see also subsections (8) to (10)), and
- (e) condition X or Y is met.
- (2) Condition X is that it is reasonable to suppose that amounts representing A's deferred profit (see subsection (11)) are included in B's profit share.

as determined on a just and reasonable basis, and
- (c) A's share of the firm's profit is chargeable to income tax under the applicable provisions of the Income Tax Acts for the tax year in which the relevant period of account ends.

- (5) If B is chargeable to income tax, in applying sections 850 to 850B in relation to B for the relevant period of account, such adjustments are to be made as are just and reasonable to take account of A's share of the firm's profit under subsection (4).
(This subsection does not apply for the purposes of subsection (7) or section 850C(7).)
- (6) “Non-individual partner” is to be read in accordance with section 850C(6).
- (7) B's profit share is to be determined by applying section 850 and, if relevant, section 850A in relation to B for the relevant period of account (whether or not B is chargeable to income tax) on the assumption that the calculation under section 849 in relation to B produces the profit for the firm mentioned in subsection (1)(b).

Information
Qualifications to section 636
863A
- (1) Subsection (2) applies at any time when conditions A to C in sections 863B to 863D are met in the case of an individual (“M”) who is a member of a limited liability partnership in relation to which section 863(1) applies.
- (2) For the purposes of the Income Tax Acts—
- (a) M is to be treated as being employed by the limited liability partnership under a contract of service instead of being a member of the partnership, and
- (b) accordingly, M's rights and duties as a member of the limited liability partnership are to be treated as rights and duties under that contract of service.
- (3) This section needs to be read with section 863G (anti-avoidance).
863B
- (1) The question of whether condition A is met is to be determined at the following times—
- (a) if relevant arrangements are in place—
- (i) at the beginning of the tax year 2014-15, or
- (ii) if later, when M becomes a member of the limited liability partnership,
at the time mentioned in sub-paragraph (i) or (ii) (as the case may be);
- (b) at any subsequent time when relevant arrangements are put in place or modified;
- (c) where—
- (i) the question has previously been determined, and
- (ii) the relevant arrangements which were in place at the time of the previous determination do not end, and are not modified, by the end of the period which was the relevant period for the purposes of the previous determination (see step 1 in subsection (3)),
immediately after the end of that period.
- (2) “Relevant arrangements” means arrangements under which amounts are to be, or may be, payable by the limited liability partnership in respect of M's performance of services for the partnership in M's capacity as a member of the partnership.
- (3) Take the following steps to determine whether condition A is met at a time (“the relevant time”).
- Step 1 Identify the relevant period by reference to the relevant arrangements which are in place at the relevant time.“The relevant period” means the period—beginning with the relevant time, andending at the time when, as at the relevant time, it is reasonable to expect that the relevant arrangements will end or be modified.
- Step 2 Condition A is met if, at the relevant time, it is reasonable to expect that at least 80% of the total amount payable by the limited liability partnership in respect of M's performance during the relevant period of services for the partnership in M's capacity as a member of the partnership will be disguised salary. An amount within the total amount is “disguised salary” if it—is fixed,is variable, but is varied without reference to the overall amount of the profits or losses of the limited liability partnership, oris not, in practice, affected by the overall amount of those profits or losses.
- (4) If condition A is determined to be met, or not to be met, at a time, the condition is to be treated as met, or as not met, at all subsequent times until the question is required to be re-determined under subsection (1)(b) or (c).
- (5) In this section “arrangements” includes any agreement, understanding, scheme, transaction or series of transactions (whether or not legally enforceable).
Qualifications to section 636
863C
Condition B is that the mutual rights and duties of the members of the limited liability partnership, and of the partnership and its members, do not give M significant influence over the affairs of the partnership.
863D
- (1) Condition C is that, at the time at which it is being determined whether the condition is met (“the relevant time”), M's contribution to the limited liability partnership (see sections 863E and 863F) is less than 25% of the amount given by subsection (2) (subject to subsection (7)).
- (2) That amount is the total amount of the disguised salary which, at the relevant time, it is reasonable to expect will be payable by the limited liability partnership in respect of M's performance during the relevant tax year of services for the partnership in M's capacity as a member of the partnership.
In this section “the relevant tax year” means the tax year in which the relevant time falls and an amount is “disguised salary” if it falls within any of paragraphs (a) to (c) at step 2 in section 863B(3).
- (3) The question of whether condition C is met is to be determined—
- (a) at the beginning of the tax year 2014-15 or, if later, the time at which M becomes a member of the limited liability partnership;
- (b) after that, at the beginning of each tax year.
- (4) If in a tax year—
- (a) there is a change in M's contribution to the limited liability partnership, or
- (b) there is otherwise a change of circumstances which might affect the question of whether condition C is met,
the question of whether the condition is met is to be re-determined at the time of the change.
This subsection is subject to section 863F(3).
- (5) If condition C is determined to be met (including by virtue of subsection (7)), or not to be met, at the relevant time, the condition is to be treated as met, or as not met, at all subsequent times until the question is required to be re-determined under subsection (3)(b) or (4).
- (6) Subsection (7) applies if—
- (a) the relevant time coincides with an increase in M's contribution to the limited liability partnership, and
- (b) apart from subsection (7), that increase would cause condition C not to be met at the relevant time.
- (7) Condition C is to be treated as met at the relevant time unless, at that time, it is reasonable to expect that condition C will not be met for the remainder of the relevant tax year (ignoring this subsection).
- (8) If there are any excluded days in the relevant tax year (see subsections (9) to (11)), in subsection (1) the reference to M's contribution to the limited liability partnership is to be read as a reference to that contribution multiplied by the following fraction—
$$D – E D$where—D is the number of days in the relevant tax year, andE is the number of excluded days in the relevant tax year.$
- (9) Any day in the relevant tax year—
- (a) which is before the day on which the relevant time falls, and
- (b) on which M is not a member of the limited liability partnership,
is an “excluded” day for the purposes of subsection (8).
- (10) If, at the relevant time, it is reasonable to expect that M will not be a member of the limited liability partnership for the remainder of the relevant tax year, any day in the relevant tax year—
- (a) which is after the day on which the relevant time falls, and
- (b) on which it is reasonable to expect that M will not be a member of the limited liability partnership,
is an “excluded” day for the purposes of subsection (8).
- (11) If the relevant time coincides with an increase in M's contribution to the limited liability partnership, any day in the relevant tax year—
- (a) which is before the day on which the relevant time falls, and
- (b) on which condition C is met,
is an “excluded” day for the purposes of subsection (8).
- (12) In subsections (6) and (11) references to an increase in M's contribution to the limited liability partnership include (in particular)—
- (a) the making of M's first contribution to the capital of the limited liability partnership, and
- (b) M being treated as having made a contribution by section 863F(2).
Income treated as ... dividend income
863E
- (1) For the purposes of condition C in section 863D M's contribution to the limited liability partnership at a time is amount A.
- (2) Amount A is the total amount which M has contributed to the limited liability partnership as capital less so much of that amount (if any) as is within subsection (6).
- (3) In particular, M's share of any profits of the limited liability partnership is to be included in the amount which M has contributed to the partnership as capital so far as that share has been added to the partnership's capital.
- (4) In subsection (3) the reference to profits is to profits calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice (before any adjustment required or authorised by law in calculating profits for income tax purposes).
- (5) Subsection (3) applies as well for the purpose of construing references to contributions to the capital of the limited liability partnership in sections 863D(12)(a) and 863F.
- (6) An amount of capital is within this subsection if it is an amount which—
- (a) M has previously drawn out or received back,
- (b) M is or may be entitled to draw out or receive back at any time when M is a member of the limited liability partnership, or
- (c) M is or may be entitled to require another person to reimburse to M.
- (7) In subsection (6) any reference to drawing out or receiving back an amount is to doing so directly or indirectly.
863F
- (1) This section applies if—
- (a) by the time mentioned in section 863D(3)(a), M has given an undertaking (whether or not legally enforceable) to make a contribution to the capital of the limited liability partnership but has not made the contribution,
- (b) the undertaking requires M to make the contribution by the end of—
- (i) the period of 3 months ending with 5 July 2014, or
- (ii) if it ends after that date, the period of 2 months beginning with the date on which M becomes a member of the limited liability partnership, and
- (c) when it is made, the contribution will be included in amount A under section 863E.
In the following subsections “the relevant period” means the period mentioned in paragraph (b)(i) or (ii) (as the case may be).
- (2) For the purpose of determining whether condition C in section 863D is met—
- (a) at the time mentioned in section 863D(3)(a), or
- (b) at any subsequent time during the relevant period,
M is to be treated as having made the contribution at the time mentioned in section 863D(3)(a) (so far as M has not (actually) made the contribution at the time at which it is being determined whether condition C is met).
- (3) If M (actually) makes the contribution (in whole or in part) during the relevant period, the question of whether condition C is met is not to be re-determined under section 863D(4) just because of the making of the contribution (in whole or in part).
- (4) If M does not (actually) make the contribution (in whole or in part) by the end of the relevant period, any determination in relation to which subsection (2) applied is to be made again (as at the time at which it was originally made).
- (5) In making a determination again—
- (a) if it is the whole of the contribution which M does not make by the end of the relevant period, subsection (2) is to be ignored;
- (b) if M makes part of the contribution by the end of the relevant period, in subsection (2) references to the contribution are to be read as references to that part of it.
863G
- (1) In determining whether section 863A(2) applies in the case of an individual who is a member of a limited liability partnership, no regard is to be had to any arrangements the main purpose, or one of the main purposes, of which is to secure that section 863A(2) does not apply in the case of—
- (a) the individual, or
- (b) the individual and one or more other individuals.
- (2) Subsection (4) applies if—
- (a) an individual (“X”) personally performs services for a limited liability partnership at a time when X is not a member of the partnership,
- (b) X performs the services under arrangements involving a member of the limited liability partnership (“Y”) who is not an individual,
- (c) the main purpose, or one of the main purposes, of those arrangements is to secure that section 863A(2) does not apply in the case of X or in the case of X and one or more other individuals, and
- (d) in relation to X's performance of the services, an amount falling within subsection (3) arises to Y in respect of Y's membership of the limited liability partnership.
- (3) An amount falls within this subsection if—
- (a) were X performing the services under a contract of service by which X were employed by the limited liability partnership, and
- (b) were the amount to arise to X directly from the limited liability partnership,
the amount would be employment income of X in respect of the employment.
- (4) If this subsection applies, in relation to X's performance of the services, X is to be treated on the following basis—
- (a) X is a member of the limited liability partnership in whose case section 863A(2) applies,
- (b) the amount arising to Y arises instead to X directly from the limited liability partnership,
- (c) that amount is employment income of X in respect of the employment under section 863A(2) accordingly, and
- (d) neither that amount, nor any amount representing that amount, is to be income of X for income tax purposes on any other basis.
- (4A) Section 863A(2) does not apply in the case of a member of a limited liability partnership if, apart from this subsection, it would apply in consequence of arrangements the main purpose, or one of the main purposes, of which is to secure that section 850C does not apply for one or more periods of account in relation to—
- (a) the member, or
- (b) the member and one or more other members of the limited liability partnership.
- (5) In this section “arrangements” includes any agreement, understanding, scheme, transaction or series of transactions (whether or not legally enforceable).

- (i) the profits for income tax purposes of the property business concerned for the year after any deduction under section 118 of ITA 2007 (“the adjusted profits”) or, if less, the share (if any) of the adjusted profits on which the individual is liable to income tax otherwise than under Chapter 6 of Part 5, and
- (ii) so much (if any) of the relievable amount as consists of current-year estate amounts.
- (3) If S is greater than the individual's adjusted total income for the year (“ATI”), the actual amount on which relief for the year is to be given in respect of a relievable amount is given by—
$$ATI S × L$where—S is the total obtained by identifying the amount that is L for each relievable amount and then finding the total of the amounts identified, andL has the same meaning as in subsection (2).$
- (4) Where—
- (a) a relievable amount,
is greater than—
- (b) the actual amount on which relief for the year is to be given in respect of the relievable amount,
the difference is the individual's brought-forward amount for the following tax year in respect of the property business concerned.
- (5) The amount of the relief for the year in respect of a relievable amount is given by—
$$AA × BR$where—AA is the actual amount on which relief for the year is to be given in respect of the relievable amount, andBR is the basic rate of income tax for the year,$
- (6) For the purposes of this section, an individual's adjusted total income for a tax year is identified as follows—
- Step 1 Identify the individual's net income for the year (see Step 2 of the calculation in section 23 of ITA 2007).
- Step 2 Exclude from that net income—so much of it as is within section 18(3) or (4) of ITA 2007 (income from savings), andso much of it as is dividend income.
- Step 3 Reduce what is left after Step 2 of this calculation by the amount of any allowances deducted for the year in the individual's case at Step 3 of the calculation in section 23 of ITA 2007. The result is the individual's adjusted total income for the year.
