RE: Cash gift from abroad
Hi,
There are no Income Tax implications on the receipt of a cash gift unless the cash gift generates interest or dividends. These would then potentially be subject to tax. You can see guidance here:
Tax on savings interest
Tax on dividends

RE: Split Year for FY21/22
Hi,
You are not automatically entitled to split year treatment. You need to decide this by taking the Statutory Residence Test that you can see here:
RDR3 Statutory Residence Test
As you have foreign interest you fall within Self Assessment criteria and must complete a Self Assessment tax return. The deadline for receipt of this return was 31 January 2023 if submitting online and 31 October 2022 if by paper.
You will be charged late filing penalties but you will have the option to appeal against these using form SA370.
Self Assessment: appeal against penalties for late filing and late payment
Thank you.

RE: sold a foreign residential property for rent and recorded a loss
Hi
When you are transferring your own existing assets to yourself, repatriation of funds or assets, there are no tax implications of transferring money to the UK. Only any interest that this capital generates is then taxable.
You can report your loss to us through Self Assessment, SA108.
Thank you. -

RE: Foreign Tax Credit - China/UK
Hi,
You should take this up with your employer and if any amendments are required you can then amend your Self Assessment tax return to take account of the revised figures.
We can confirm that UK tax liability is calculated using the gross figure.
Thank you. -
RE: First tax year in the UK 2022/23
