First time buyer with inheritance stamp duty question

[scarlet24]

My partner and I are purchasing our first home. A few years ago my partners father died and left his estate, which included a 50% share of a property, to my partner. My partners mother was also the executor of the will, along with the solicitor who drafted the will. The property was sold, and the 50% proceeds were added to the estate, which was then paid to my partner.

my question is do we qualify for the FTB discount or not?

If you mean the discount on stamp duty for first time buyers, then yes you do, provided neither of you have bought a property before
