Lifetime ISA Declaration

Why is this important?

By agreeing to the declarations below, you are entering into a contract to open an HL Lifetime ISA for the tax year 2025/26. This declaration will also cover any future tax years that you choose to make a subscription to your HL Lifetime ISA until you have reached 50 years of age.

Declarations

To open an HL Lifetime ISA with us, you must read and agree to the following declarations. If you do not agree with any of the declarations below, you should not proceed with opening a HL Lifetime ISA.

You declare that:

  • You are between 18 to 39 years of age; or

  • The account is a defaulted Lifetime ISA subscription or a returned withdrawal after a failed first-time residential purchase;

  • All subscriptions made, or to be made, belong to you;

  • You have not, and will not subscribe, more than the Lifetime ISA annual subscription limit of £4,000 per tax year;

  • You have not, and will not make, any payments for the tax year 2025/26 to another Lifetime ISA;

  • You have not, and will not subscribe, more than the overall subscription limit (the £20,000 annual ISA limit) in total to any combination of permitted ISAs in the same tax year; and

  • You are a resident in the United Kingdom for tax purposes, or, if you are not a UK resident:

    • you perform duties which, by virtue of Section 28 of Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (Crown employees serving overseas), are treated as being performed in the United Kingdom; or

    • you are married to, or in a civil partnership with, a person who performs such duties (Please note that you must notify us if you cease to be a UK resident or to perform such duties or be married to, or in a civil partnership with, a person who performs such duties. By completing this application, you agree to notify us if this changes).

Your authorisation

We also require the following authorisation from you to manage your account operationally. By continuing with the HL Lifetime ISA application process, you authorise us to:

  • Make on your behalf any claims to relief from tax in respect of Lifetime ISA investments;

  • Submit Lifetime ISA bonus claims to HMRC on your behalf;

  • Deduct any charges for unlisted withdrawals or incorrect Lifetime ISA bonuses from your account balance and pay them to HMRC; and
