thanks... my orginal query has been kindly answered ,and I received the letter of confirmation today ( 7 days after completing the online form).. many thanks ps.. there appears a number of posts that have jumped on this thread that are off my orginal request,,, probably best for people to start their own topic/post

I found the ANSWER,,, You must apply for a Certificate and the HMRC make the decision based on the application as to whether a “certificate” or a “letter” can be issued. eg ) if no foreign income is declared then a “letter “ is issued Guidance can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/get-a-certificate-of-residence#how-to-apply An online application can be made here: https://www.tax.service.gov.uk/shortforms/form/PT_CertOfRes

Thank you , but my question is How do you apply for a Letter of Residence .

Trying to find how to apply for a Letter of confirmation of Tax Residence ,,,a certificate is not required . Own a holiday home in Cyprus and the Cypriot probate system requires Letter of confirmation of Tax Residence for my late wife. (uk tax resident) There seems lots of information on how to obtain a Certificate but cant see how to apply for a "simple" Letter
