The apartment belongs to a minor

Parents (adoptive parents, foster parents, guardians, trustees) when purchasing property for their (ward) children under the age of 18 years can receive property deductions in the general manner and in the same amounts (clause 6 of Article 220 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation). At the same time, the father has the full right to a deduction for his minor child even in the case where paternity is established later than the date of payment for the cost of such property (letter of the Federal Tax Service of Russia dated April 2, 2014 No. BS-4-11/6019).

It is important to note that the child will not lose his right to deduction from this. Upon reaching the age of majority, when purchasing his own home, he will be able to take advantage of the full deduction. This is stated in the letter of the Ministry of Finance of Russia dated August 29, 2014 No. 03-04-05/43425.

If you declare a deduction for yourself and your child, its maximum amount will not increase. For example, a parent bought an apartment in common shared ownership with his minor child. In such a situation, the parent will receive a deduction for purchase expenses for themselves and for the child in the amount of no more than 2,000,000 rubles. Such clarifications are given in the letter of the Ministry of Finance of Russia dated March 11, 2015 No. 03-04-05/12499.
