Commentary on Sections Relevance of “earned income” Section 277 of ICTA
2518.This section, dating in part from 1842, also relates to income arising from jointly owned property. It is not related to sections 282A and 282B. It is instead about how personal reliefs may be claimed against income arising from jointly owned property. As there is no longer any form of joint assessment of income belonging to more than one person, this provision is otiose and has not been rewritten.
