Transferring previously earned saving to UK

Posted Mon, 27 Nov 2023 22:43:50 GMT by
Hi, I am a UK resident on a tier 2 skilled visa since late January 2021. Before moving to UK, I had my savings in India, I needed some funds to support my mortgage payment in UK so I transferred from my Indian bank savings. As I do not earn any income in India and only used my previously earned saving which I earned becoming UK resident, will that be ok as per UK tax rules? I understand I have earned some interest on my saving in India but I paid tax on them in India and also I am not planning to bring any interest earned to UK yet. Kindly assist me with clarification.
