Hi, I have been renting out my car parking space in the primary residence I'm living in. Now I'm looking to sell the property, and I would like to know whether renting out the car parking space considered as "letting our part of your home" according to this article https://www.gov.uk/tax-sell-home/let-out-part-of-home? And do I have to pay capital gain tax because of renting out the car parking space? Thanks.

Hi, thanks for getting back to me. Could you elaborate why the refund is not taxable?

Hi, I used to live in Japan for about 7 years, then moved to the UK. While living in Japan, I contributed to Japan National Pension which is similar to UK State pension. Because I only contributed to Japan National Pension for 7 years which is not enough to qualify to get pension when I reach pension age. So after moving out of Japan, I applied for pension refund which is something Japan Pension allows. A few months later I got the refund to my UK bank account. My question are because I applied and got the refund while being a UK tax resident: 1. is the refund considered as taxable? 2. if so, under which section/category should I declare the money under in my self-assessment? Thanks.
