  • Re: Gifted shares in the 90s I have sold them but do not have the trade confirmations

    Hi,

    You can use the price of the shares on your statement, to work out the value of the shares at the time they were gifted to you.  This can then be used to work out if there is a capital gain, by

    deducting the Allowable costs (including purchase price) from the Disposal proceeds.  If thre is no capital gains tax to pay, then there is nothing to report to HMRC.  There is a calculator at:

    Tax when you sell shares.  

    If there is a capital gains tax liability, you can report and pay the capital gains at:

    Report and pay your Capital Gains Tax,

    before 31 December or in a self assessment tax return after that date.

    Thank you.
  • Re:Tax on interest on long term fixed rate bond

    Hi,

    The guidance was first published on 19/3/2016. If you have declared income when the rules state you shouldn't, you can ask for an amendment. As we can only go back 4 years, 19/20 is the

    first year that you can have reviewed. Maturity dates is between you and NS&I or any other provider that you have the bonds with and again any interest on statements is for you to discuss

    with the provider to give you a breakdown. As you are now aware of the situation, there would be no need to declare annually if you do not meet the criteria so would not be paying the tax

    twice and the interest would be correctly declared and taxed when it should be.

    Thank you.

  • Self assessment about SA102 and SA109

    Hi,

    On the basis of the info provided, you should register for Self Assessment (on the grounds that you receive foreign interest) and apply for Split Year treatment. The UK part of the year would begin on the date you arrived in the UK. When completing your Self Assessment tax return, you should only declare income received between the date of your arrival and 5 April 2023. Any income earned/received before you arrived in the UK does not have to be declared. See link below:

    Thank you.
  • Pay in arrears

    Hi,

    Guidance for employers re: arrears of pay is provided at EIM02530:                 

    Employment Income Manual                                                                                                 ,

    From the perspective of an employee who receives arreas of pay, the arrears are treated as received (and therefore taxable) in the year in which the individual became entitled to the payment, rather than when the payment was actually made. Please refer to the guidance at EIM42290:                     

    Employment Income Manual

    Thank you.
