Hi, I am based in Channel Islands and have been submitting tax returns and paying taxes in Guernsey. I am looking to invest in the UK government scheme for Cash Lifetime ISA for the house buy in the UK in future. One of the eligibility criteria is that I need to be UK tax resident. I looked at all the relevant information on internet but not sure that I would be a UK tax resident when resident in Channel Islands and paying taxes there. Any source of information would be helpful. Thanks!

Hi,

As you are tax resident in Guernsey, you are not tax resident in the UK. This means that you are unable to open an ISA of any kind.

Thank you.
