I am living and working in New Zealand and informed HMRC that I left the UK and so non resident for tax purposes. I still have savings in the UK, and so in this current tax year I have earned just over £9000 in interest payments. I expected to have to submit a self assessment tax return, but when I went through the decision making tool, it said that because the interest was less than £10000, I did not have to submit a tax return. Is that correct? I have no other income in the UK, just the interest. Many thanks.

So just to be sure, the £10k figure doesn't apply where you are a non-resident and a self assessment tax return is required? Please confirm. I am a British citizen, so I will have a personal allowance, so I don't think I'll actually pay any tax. Thank you.
