RE: Reporting CGT in Oversea property
Hi,
Yes, you can claim residential relief on the property to reduce any gain and this includes the additional 9 months.
As it is a foreign property and would have been sold for excess of £49200, it must still be reported even if no tax is due.
Thank you. -

RE: How to declare vested RSU shares tax has already been paid ?
Hi,
As the payment is from your employer, the income should be shown in the employment section if it is included in your P60. You would then claim credit for the tax in the foreign section under 'Employment, self-employment and other income which you paid foreign tax on'.
If it is not included in your P60, please include it on the box on the employment page for 'Tips and other payments not included on your P60'.
ERSM20193 advises that when RSUs payout at the market value on what is called "dividend equivalents" in either cash or shares, such payments will generally be taxed as earnings in the year they are received.

RE: Cash gift from parents outside UK
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
