HMRC Admin 20 Response

Hi Alfie,
Without checking your personal records, I am unable to confirm if the further information you have provided has been received, you can check this by contacting the National Insurance contributions helpline (0300 200 3500 or +44 191 2037010 if calling from abroad).
The current timescale for the department who will receive your letter and process your application is 44 weeks. They are currently working on post received on 8 March 2023. 
Thank you.
 

Hi megadyne,
You will need to amend your tax return to remove the entry in 52.1 to 52.4, as these boxes are for non UK residents to complete, if they dispose of a UK property or land.  
You can do this online by logging into your personal tax account and amending your tax return or by submitting a paper SA108 marked as an amendement.  
Capital Gains summary (2023).  
The latter option will take longer to be processed.
Thank you.

Hi Valley5735,
There is no requirement to report any losses to HMRC.  
You can do so (in writing or in a tax return) if you choose, so that they can be carried forward and set against a future gain (you have 4 years from the end of the tax year to do this, otherwise the losses are out of date).
The date of acquisition of the shares, will be the date your father passes away.
Thank you.

Hi Sharon2,
Yes.  
You would need to claim it back, if the pension was a non UK government pension.  
You will need to download and print off the DT individual UK /  Spain form at Double Taxation: UK - Spain (Form Spain-Individual).  
Please complete the form, declaring your pensions / annuities, sign and date it.  
Then send the form to your local Spanish Tax Office.  
They will return the validated form to you, which you send to HMRC (address is on the front page of the form) along with your 'Residencia Fiscal En Espana Convenio'.
We can then arrange for the pension payer to refund any tax deducted.
Thank you.

Hi Dominic Kini,
It will be a generic email but you should still log into your account to ensure your tax return for 22/23 shows as being received by HMRC.
Thank you.

Hi HMRC1234,
The preceeding 3 years is applicable to the year in which you are taking the test.
For 22/23 you would then be looking at 21/22, 20/21 and 19/20.
For 21/22 you would be looking at 20/21, 19/20 and 18/19.
Yes it is for families with children who are studying in the UK.
The number of ties needed to meet the criteria is stated as a number and in your scenario of 3 you would need to have 3 different ties to the UK.
This can be any of the 5 you have mentioned.
Thank you.

Hi VJ01,
Yes.  
You are unable to use the HMRC online tax return, where you are not UK resident, claiming split year treatment or claiming remittance basis (you may be able to buy a commerical tax return in these circumstances).  
The default taxation process in the UK, is the 'arising basis' on your world-wide income, regardless of whether the income or capital gains is remitted to the UK.
Thank you.

Hi Duncan Hewitt,
In this case, the voluntary payment cannot be collected through self assessment.  
You will need to contact the NIC helpline and make a voluntary payment to them.
They should also be able to update self assessment, so the future voluntary payments can be made via the tax return.  
The helpline number is 0300 200 3500 (Monday to Friday: 8am to 6pm Closed on Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays).  
You may find more information at National Insurance: detailed information.
Thank you.

Hi LWC,
If you qualify for split year then you only report any foreign income for the UK part of the year:-
Residence, Domicile and Remittance Basis Manual RDRM12000 - Residence: The SRT: Split year treatment.
If you do not qualify then you will need to report all your foreign income to the UK:-
Tax on foreign income.  
The guidance at RDRM12150 will help you work out if split year treatment applies.  
If claiming split year, you need to do this in the residence section of the return and you will therefore need to buy 3rd party software to file the whole return:-
Self Assessment commercial software suppliers
Thank you.

Hi Artimida1111,
Your understanding is correct.
Thank you.
