Good day I have reread this topic with messages again and do not understand your answer. Other people asked their questions, describing life situations and received answers about whether they need to pay taxes or not in their cases. For example, you can take the very first message. I feel discriminated against because of an unjustified refusal in this case. I would like to understand how my case differs from the cases of other people and why they received answers about what to do, but I did not. I would also like to understand if some department analyzes these answers and the behavior of administrators since I feel discriminated against in my case. Thank you.

Dear HMRC admin, You also did not answer the question of who evaluates the quality of work of administrators on this forum? The messages of other forum participants also contain descriptions of specific life situations, so your answer makes me feel discriminated. I would like it to be considered by higher authorities. Thank you

Hi HMRC Agent. I am looking for some guidance regarding correcting a previous tax year's (as yet) undisclosed foreign income. I have commenced voluntary disclosure but want to verify my understanding is correct. Background: I emigrated in June 2005 to South Africa and I am still taxed as a S.A. tax resident in South Africa. I receive of a U.K. private/company pension (contributions all made in UK prior to emigration) paid in the U.K. from November 2018 taxed under UK PAYE since monthly benefits commenced. I am also in receipt of a South African private/company pension that pays an annuity at 17 percent of the residual fund balance annually before the end of February. I sold my SA residence and liquidated all SA assets shortly before returning to the UK permanently on 7th September 2021 to temporary accommodation with family before purchasing a permanent home on 2nd March 2022. Please can you confirm the following: 1. Foreign annuity payment received 28 Feb 2021 (taxed in S.A. tax year 1/3/2021-28/2/2022) is not taxable in the UK 2. Foreign annuity payment received 28 Feb 2022 (taxed in S.A. tax year 1/3/2023-28/2/2023) GBP equivalent should have been declared as taxable for a split tax year 21/22 in the UK - and please confirm split calculation multiplier - (or very optimistically, does my split year UK tax liability only commence 22/23 after acquiring a permanent UK residence)? 3. Only interest received monthly on my SA bank account from September 2021 should be declared as foreign interest income. I then assume that all subsequent SA income should be declared in the UK tax year in which actual payment is received. Many thanks.

Hi, I want to know if I file the self assessment by paper form, then how can I know how much tax I need to pay? Will HMRC mail me a letter or I can check it on my online account? Thanks.

Hi I purchased a UK house in December 2022 and arrived to settle in the UK in mid-May 2023. However, I received my final salary on 27 May 2023 from Hong Kong while I was in the UK. Do I need to declare this for tax purposes, and should I apply for split year treatment? Thanks

Hi,

You would need to submit a tax return to claim split year treatment, so that the period you were still resident in Hong Kong, is only mentioned as a free hand note and not included in any calculations.

Thank you.

Hi HMRC, I arrived UK on 15 July 2021 and in my first tax year 2021/2022, I did my tax clearance in Hong Kong before arriving UK, I was unemployed for the rest of the year up till now. Do I still need to submit a self assessment to report my income earned in Hong Kong from 6 April 2021 to any time before 15 July 2021? If yes, would there be any penalty for back-dated submission and how much would that be? My understanding is that split year treatment should apply and therefore I don’t have tax to pay and no submission for self assessment is required? Please advise. Regards. SN
