RE: Incorrect DOB On HMRC
Hi,
If your date of birth is incorrect you will need to submit evidence of your actual date of birth. Please include your National Insurance number, and, or UTR on the first page of the letter, your full name and your full address including the postcode. Please ensure you sign the letter.
The evidence you provide must be an original document or certified copy. We accept main evidence of birth from a European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA) country, which are the original document or certified copies of a birth certificate, passport, we can accept even if out of date, full driving licence, not a provisional licence, or an ID card, all parts of the ID card must be copied. Please ensure you sign the letter.
Unfortunately, we cannot give a timescale for when your date of birth will be updated on our records. Please send this information to:
PT Operations,
North East England,
HM Revenue and Customs,

RE: Self employed and starting a job
Hi,
As you will not have a P45 to give to your new job, your employer will give you a starter checklist form to complete to register the PAYE employment and allocate the correct tax code for you.
If the employer does not have a starter checklist form, you can find the starter checklist here:
Starter checklist for PAYE

RE: Stocks and Shares: Deadlines, 4 year carried forward
Hi,
May 2018 falls into the 2018 to 2019 tax year, which ended on 5 April 2019. To claim losses for 2018 to 2019, you had until 5 April 2023, 4 years from the end of the tax year, to claim those losses. In almost all cases, any claim for losses, submitted after this date for 2022 to 2023, will be rejected. You can look at the guidance on late claims here:

RE: Sending money from abroad to UK account
Hi D. Vasilopoulos,
There is no limit to the amount of money you can transfer from an overseas bank account to a UK bank account.
If any of the money transferred is from income or capital gains arising in the tax year it is transferred, then that income and capital gains is taxable and should be reported on a Self Assessment tax return.
If the money transferred is purely from savings, it is classed as capital and is not taxable.
Thank you. -
RE: CGT on Sale, Joint owners confusion
Hi,
As you transferred part of the ownership in 2018, you would need to report a gain from then, based on the transfer. As such you will only account for the cost of the 50% purchase price when selling. Owner 2 should then use the value when they acquired it, please note it is the market value and not necessarily the morgage price that you are using for the gain in 2018.
You will need to submit a late return or amendment to delcare this. You can see guidance here:

RE: EBay - Stamp Collector - Sales of Stamps
Hi,
If you disposed of assets and made a gain of over £6000 in the current tax year, that ends on 5 April 2024, you would be required to declare the gain and pay the tax, using the real time capital gains service online by no later than 31 December 2024:
Report and pay your Capital Gains Tax
If you did not do this, then a tax return is required to declare the gain.
If there are no gains or they are below the annual exempt allowance, then there is no requirement to declare the gain. To be sure that a tax return is not required for other reasons, you should check the self assessment criteria tool here:
Report and pay your Capital Gains Tax

RE: Payments on Account not showing in 'Current Position'
Hi,
Payments on account are due if the balance due for the previous tax year was over £1000 and less than 80% of tax was deducted at source. If you meet this criteria but payments on account are not set up, then you will need to contact our Self Assessment team to review.
