My tenancy agreement started 10 Jun 2022. I arrived UK on 20 July and I sold my foreign home on 25 July. When did my split year start? Is it 25 July when I sold my foreign home and UK home became my only home? Thanks you.

Hi,

The overseas part of the tax year starts at the beginning of the tax year and ends the day before the earliest point at which an individual meets the 'only home' test. So, on the basis of the info you have provided, the UK part of the split year began on 25 July. Please however refer to the following guidance for confirmation of your residency/ split year position.

Thank you.
