This represented just 1.7pc of the 27,800 estates which paid inheritance tax that year. In 2020-2021, 510 estates claimed the relief - or 1.9pc - compared to 500 the year before. As Labour gears up to levy inheritance taxes on pension pots from April 2027, experts said that the little-known relief could become much more popular. Inheritance tax is charged at 40pc on the value of an estate worth more than £325,000.

So far we've received nothing. The amount is about £4,000.
