A quick question on ISA's

As far as I am aware - no.

Who can open an ISA?

A.
You need to be a UK resident aged 16 or over to open a cash ISA, or aged 18 or over to open a stocks & shares ISA. You can't open an account together with someone else, or on behalf of someone else.

If an account already exists from previous years...

1. Can it be topped?
2. Can it be left as is, or should be closed?

you can leave existing isas where they are they will still accrue interest but you cannot legally top up or take new ones..

dont close them  -  there is no requirement for you to close them if you reside somewhere else

Thanks for the information.

a good few years ago i was told by the bank to close mine so i did... but i didnt realise till it was too late that i didnt actually have to close them.....  just stop adding to them...
