Paper 11CITG Final Level 2100 marks

Advanced Taxation Practice

Demonstrate mastery of all major taxes across individuals, partnerships, companies and trusts — and their interaction in complex, unstructured practical scenarios.

About This Paper

What is Advanced Taxation Practice?

Advanced Taxation Practice is the integration paper — it draws together all the taxes studied across the CITG qualification and requires candidates to compute and advise on their interaction in complex, multi-tax scenarios. Unlike earlier computation papers, Advanced Taxation Practice presents unstructured problems where candidates must identify the relevant taxes, structure the analysis, and present advice. The paper includes oil and gas taxation, insurance company taxation, the tax treatment of hedging and rollover relief, and the application of case law to practical problems. Answers must be in professional advisory format.
