Hi HMRC Admin, Thank you for your advice. Noted I have to declare the proportion of the 13th month salary for the period of 17-31 August as UK income. Could you please help to advise which form(s) should I use and where should I fill the amount in order to declare the UK part of both August salary and 13th month salary from Hong Kong (I will apply split year treatment)? I cannot find any suitable areas to fill it on SA100, SA102 and SA106. Thank you for your help! ACTS

Hi HMRC Admin, When I checked through the link https://www.gov.uk/check-if-you-need-tax-return, system said that I do not need to send a Self Assessment tax return. However, when I went through the steps via link https://www.gov.uk/register-for-self-assessment, system said that I need to register for Self Assessment and send a tax return. Therefore, I want to know which instruction I should follow? Thanks ACTS

Hi HMRC Admin, Thank you so much for your help! Noted that I need to apportion my August salary to reflect the UK income in the period of 17-31 August. Sorry for I have one more question: Hong Kong company also paid the 13th month salary in proportion to me (monthly salary divided by 12 months times 8 months (for the period from 1st Jan to 31st Aug) £3000 / 12 x 8 = £2000). In this case, do I need to declare the 13th month salary (£2000) in tax return? If yes, should I declare the whole £2000? Or apportion it (£121) to reflect the UK income for the period of 17-31 August (£2000 divided 8months divided 31days times 15days = £121)? Thank you for your help in advance! ACTS

Hi HMRC Admin, Thank you so much for your help! Sorry for I have questions on the answer of question 4. The answer of question 4 is “No as the work was actually carried out in Hong Kong.”. However, my situation is: In August 2022: 1st – 16th : Worked the Hong Kong job in Hong Kong. Paid the income tax of all incomes (included full month of August salary) to the Hong Kong government. 17th : Landed in UK and started UK part of split year treatment (per the answer of question 1). 17th-31st : Continue worked Hong Kong's job in UK. Hong Kong employment ended on 31 Aug. I want to double confirm that the income from 17 Aug to 31 Aug 2022 will be considered carried out in Hong Kong even though I arrived in UK and started UK part of split year treatment since 17 Aug 2022? If the income from 17 Aug to 31 Aug is considered carried out in UK finally, but I already paid related income taxes to Hong Kong government. In this case, will UK government tax me again? Thank you for your help in advance! ACTS

Hi HMRC Admin, I raise up the enquiry here because I cannot find the answer clearly after reviewed the Gov.UK guidance and the forums. Hope you can help to provide the answer to my case. Below is the time frame of my situation: - 15 June 2022 sold out Hong Kong home - 01 July 2022 rented a house in UK and stay till now - 17 Aug 2022 landed in UK - 31 Aug 2022 Hong Kong permeant job ended (all HK incomes were taxed before I landed in UK) - 1 Sept 2022 started a permeant job in UK and work till now - 10 Sept 2022 received Aug salary from Hong Kong Questions: 1) I become the UK tax resident in tax year 2022-2023 and am going to apply split year treatment. Should the UK part be started on 17 Aug 2022 or 01 July 2022 under case 4? 2) I had permeant job in UK (started on 1 Sept 2022) which later than I had the only home in the UK, so the UK part should not be started on 01 Sept 2022, is it correct? 3) From above, seems I meet case 4 and case 5 of split year treatment. In SA109, I should tick box 3.1, is it correct? 4) Do I still need to report Aug salary from Hong Kong? - If yes, should I declare partial amount (from Aug 17 to 31 Aug 2022 which assuming UK part stared on 17 Aug 2022) or full amount (due to when I received the salary on 10 Sept 2022 which I am already the UK tax resident?)? - If the UK part started on 01 July 2022, then I should declare both July and Aug Hong Kong salary, is it correct? 5) Since I already paid the taxed for all my Hong Kong incomes (included Aug salary) before I arrived UK. - Will Aug salary still be taxed in UK? - I have the invoice proving I already paid the tax in Hong Kong. How can I enclose it together with the tax return? Thank you for your help!
