RE: Receiving UK State Pension abroad; Bank statement does not declare source amount in Sterling
Hi
Your pension provider should provide you with a P60 every year. This would confirm the annual amount of pension you have received from them.
If you are referring to your state pension, you would need to contact the state pension helpline on 0800 731 0175 or from overseas +44 191 218 3600 (8:00am to 6:00pm, Monday to Friday).

RE: Does miscellaneous income count as earnings for pension contributions?
Hi r77jam
You can get tax relief on private pension contributions worth up to 100% of your annual earnings. Earnings refers to money earned from employment, whereas income is total money received, including from earnings, benefits and pensions, and so on. You would have to determine whether your 'miscellaneous income' is earned or not.
Thank you

RE: If I had Foreign Income from employment, should I list that employer in "Tailor your return"
Hi
If you are declaring your overseas employment income to include it in the tax liability calculation, you should include it in the employment section, in pounds sterling.
Do not include foreign tax deducted here, this goes in the foreign section, so you can claim a foreign tax credit.
Please use "N/A" for the employers reference. On a paper tax return, this would be supplementary pages SA102 and SA106.

RE: SRT - Return to the UK
Hi
You will be basing your residence on the RDR3 and would therefore need to meet one of the conditions of the overseas tests in order not to be UK resident.
Thank you
