Self Assessment and declaration of Non-resident

Dear HMRC Administrator, I would like to inquire about my tax situation in the UK. I used the "Tax Residence Check" tool (https://www.tax.service.gov.uk/guidance/check-your-UK-residence-status/choose-tax-year) provided by HMRC, which indicated that I am not considered a tax resident in the UK for the tax year 2022-23. However, during this period, I opened a bank account in the UK and received a minimal amount of saving interest income (less than 1 pound). In such a scenario, do I still need to complete a Self-Assessment tax return and declare that I am not a tax resident (SA100 and SA109)? I would appreciate any advice and guidance you can provide. Thank you. BT

Hi,

If you have to complete a tax return for another reason, you would round up or down all of your entries to whole pounds, in your favour. You would not need to report anything below £1.00.

Thank you.

Thanks. For UK income, I only received the mentioned £1.00 saving interest only. I have overseas income but as I am a non-resident for that tax year. I would comprehend that I don't need to do both the Self-Assessment and declare that I am not a tax resident. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong. Thank you.
