    Can I leave some of my shares with my current ISA and pay into the new ISA while I'm in the process of transferring?

    24 July 2023

    Question by Edward

    I have a large Stocks and Shares ISA with Fidelity, I'm looking to move some or all of it to another provider. Can I leave some or all of it with Fidelity and pay into the new provider while I'm in the process of transferring?

    Answered by Lee Wells

    Hi Edward,

    The only rule is that you cannot contribute to more than one ISA provider in any one tax year, so provided you haven't contributed to Fidelity in this tax year, then yes you could transfer to another provider and contribute to them too.

    Hope this helps

    When Lee got his first job in the 90’s his father said ‘you should go to see my financial adviser’ (he didn’t’ know he had one). Lee dutifully went to see him and was converted by the common sense advice he was given on saving and investing for his future. He liked it so much he joined the company so he could help other people learn how to invest. Lee now runs a company passionate about providing value for money advice on a whole range of areas.

    Important stuffHolly and the team have worked in the finance industry for many years but we are not regulated to give you personal financial advice. For every story on this website about a good investment, or something which went up by 10% or made someone £200, we could also share a story about a bad investment, something which fell in value or lost someone £200. We aim to provide general information and pointers – and btw we are totally agnostic about which providers you might pick – but if you have complex affairs, want personalised advice or need specific recommendations, please look at advice pages and see if regulated digital or traditional financial advice would be the best solution for your needs.

    Risk warningAs is always the case with investing, your capital is at risk. The value of your portfolio can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you invest. Tax treatment depends on your individual circumstances and may change in the future.
