Lifetime ISA

Who can send me a Home-buying Gift?

Anyone with a UK bank account can send gifts of £100 or more. For our Cash Lifetime ISA, you can receive gifts from up to 4 people per tax year, with a maximum of £500 each.

For gifters with their own Lifetime ISA, sending a gift to someone else’s LISA does not count towards the gifter’s own annual ISA allowance.
