  • Filling out P85 when on a working holiday

    Hello, I'm currently in Canada and I am trying to fill out the P85 form to alert the HMRC that I'm now living in Canada. There is a section of the form that asks 'Do you have a job or do you plan to work in Canada'. I don't have a job yet but I'm looking for one. In other words, I do plan to work in Canada and have a valid work permit. However, if I select yes on this section it then asks me to fill in details about my employer, which I do not currently have. Selecting 'no' for this section also feels misleading as I am looking for a job even though I don't have one in place yet. What is the best way to proceed from here? Should I wait until I have secured a job before filling out the form or should I select one of the choices now? Thanks
