UK property, split year non-UK reisdent help

UK property, split year non-UK reisdent help

Didn't find your answer?

Hi,

I lived an worked in the UK employed up to 28th June 2013.

Moved to Jersey same day started employement 1st July 2013.

I completed forms to HMRC stating this and was told tax was ok and sorted up to date.

I declare my UK property income (runs at a loss) within my Jersey tax.

I am in Jersey for full 2014/15 tax year - UK property still rented out.

Was today told i owe £100 for filing late with uk regarding my uk property. I now need to download a tax return and fill it in (i'm going to appeal the fine but that's me last concern).

Which forms do i need to fill in? I assume employment with UK income to 28th June. Employment for Jersey income to 5/4/14 (do i need this due to the foreign form?)

UK Property forms,

Foreign form to claim tax already paid on Jersey income as part of DTA.

Residence form letting them know when i left UK.

Is this correct or do i need to fill out more or less than what i think?

Thanks

CI

Hi

You'll need to complete:

the main tax return

the employment supplementary pages for the UK employment income to cessation

UK property supplementary pages for full tax year

Residence supplementary pages, including split year treatment details (if appropriate)

 

If the split year treatment applies, then overseas income arising in the second part of the year shouldn't be taxable in the UK, and so you probably won't need to complete foreign pages, as you won't be claiming credit or deduction for foreign tax.

This will of course depend upon your circumstances, and is general advice. This may be useful : https://www.gov.uk/tax-right-retire-abroad-return-to-uk as it includes links to help determine your residence status.

If you are having difficulty, it may be easier to find an accountant to prepare the return for you for this 'transitional' year, so that you are on the right footing going forward (assuming that you intend to be working overseas for some time.

You may also want to consider the non-resident landlord scheme. https://www.gov.uk/tax-uk-income-live-abroad/rent
