HMRC Admin 5 Response

Hi

If you are employed by a UK company and you are not resident in the UK while undertaking this employment, then your income is taxable in Spain and not the UK.  
If you do not need to complete Self Assessment tax returns, then you would complete form P85 - please see Get your Income Tax right if you're leaving the UK
However if you do need to complete a self assessment tax return, then along with the residence page (SA109), you would need to submit a completed HS304 please take look at the helpsheet here Non-residents tax relief under double taxation agreements (Self Assessment helpsheet HS304)

Thank you

Hi kp

On the tailor your return section there is a question that asks if you made contributions to a pension scheme.
You need to answer yes to this to open the section where you declare them.

Thank you

Hi

You can also use the London closing rate, as would be reported on a daily basis, in national newspapers.  
The Bank of England publish spot rates against Sterling and other currencies, but the rates they publish are not official rates, so should not be used.  
The official rates are based on the London closing rate.

Thank you

Hi

Hi

If your chargeable event gain is over £10000.00, then you meet the criteria for completing a self assessment tax return.  
Chargeable event gains, should be declared on SA101 page Ai1, boxes 4 and 5 please see Self Assessment: additional information (SA101)
Self assessment will calculate the top slicing relief for you.  
If you are completing your tax return online, when tailoring your return, select yes to "Did you receive any other UK income, for example, employment lump sums, share schemes, life insurance gains?" onpaqge 2 of 3.

Thank you

Hi

In your self assessment tax return, you would use the contracted sum as the gross, the agency fee declared as an expense and the cis deduction of tax paid.  
This will allow you to declare gross profit and expenses, to arrive at the net taxable profit and the tax paid.

Thank you

Hi jakk Pierpoint

It can take 8 weeks for a response to the referral we send, this does not mean the repayment won't be reviewed before then.

Thank you

Hi Charles David Hume

That is correct.  You can report the loss on SA108 and carry it forward to set against any future gains.

Thank you
