RE: Moving back to the UK from abroad and bringing back income earned
Hi, I need some help regarding working abroad. I am going to be teaching abroad for the next academic year with plans to continue to teach abroad for the foreseeable future. We are keeping our house in the UK and will continue to pay the mortgage, council tax, bills etc as we want to return to the UK to visit family and friends in the school holidays at Christmas and in the summer, and possibly at Easter, and are planning to return to the UK so our children can complete A levels or attend university here if they wish. I know there is a form to complete to work abroad but don't know if I need to complete anything else or if there are restrictions on how long we can visit the UK for on effectively what will be our holidays when teaching abroad? We will be paying tax abroad during the time we teach there. I don't think we will be earning any money in the UK when we return, but I do mark for A level and GCSE exam boards for international papers at the minute that are taxed in the UK. I may decide not to continue with this marking after this academic year anyway but I know you can mark these internationally as other people who live abroad mark on the same papers as myself. Please can you advise what we need to do before we leave? Thank you.
