Commentary on Sections Structure of Chapters Overview Section 686: Payments received after deduction of tax
2626.Subsection (1) confirms that if income tax has been deducted by the payer of the annual payment, the recipient is treated as having paid that income tax. It is based on sections 348(1) and 349(1) of ICTA. The gap otherwise filled by case law (see Allchin v Corporation of South Shields (1943), 25 TC 445 HL, particularly Viscount Simon LC on page 461, Stokes v Bennett, (1953) 34 TC 337 HC, and Grosvenor Place Estates Ltd v Roberts (1960), 39 TC 433 CA) has been expressly rewritten.
