  • RE: Self-Assessment for saving interest.

    Hi Last tax year I was part-time PAYE employed but also did a small amount of freelance work (total earnings £1400) between jobs. I have also earned interest on savings in a joint account with my partner (not married or in a civil partnership). I believe I need to fill in a self assessment for £1400 self-employment earnings? Do I declare savings interest on my self assessment form? Or will it be noted with HMRC directly as I was also PAYE? If I declare on self assessment form, would I declare 50% of interest earnings as it's a joint account?
