BTL income advice

[Ninjamouse]

Can anyone please offer us some advice/experience.......
We're just in the process of buying our first btl house using some inheritance money. Dh earns just over the 40% tax threshold and I'm a SAHM and therefore have no earnings. Is there anyway we can jointly own the house and have me down as earning the income?

You need to jointly elect that the income from the house belongs to you alone. If you look at the hmrc website you should find some guidance. Google "HMRC declaration of beneficial interest in property" and it will come up with the form.
