Hi,
All of our guidance is designed towards the UK.  
The tax treaty between the UK and Australia is reciprocal.  
You can interchange the 'contracting state' and the 'other state' to reverse the guidance.  (Australia: tax treaties).  
If you will be resident in the UK and working from the UK, you may find you also have tax to pay in the UK.  
You should consider your residence status for the period you will be in the UK.  (RDR3 Statutory Residence Test.
Thank you.

Hi,
The default for married couples and civil partners is 50/50 split.  
The only other alternative is a split based on the actual share of ownership of the property.  
To do this please follow the guidance at Declare beneficial interests in joint property and income.  
In either case, both of you will need to complete a self assessment tax return, so that you can declare your share of the income from the property.
Thank you.

Hi,
It is the date that you receive the dividend that is used for tax purposes and the exchange rate on that date, not the date you actually convert the currency to sterling.  
Foreign currency is considered an asset and its disposal can give rise to a chargeable gain or allowable loss (CG78300 - Foreign currency: introduction).  
Under the terms of Self Assessment, we do not provide an official exchange rate and the onus is on the individual to use a just and reasonable exchange rate for each acquisition and disposal. For your convenience, there are exchange rates at Exchange rates from HMRC in CSV and XML format and for older rates at Exchange rates.
You are free to use any of the supplied rates or one of your own choosing. 
Thank you.

Hi,
The maximum you can invest each year in ISAs is £20,000. 
You can have £20,000 in one account or split the allowance across multiple accounts.  
If you invest £20,000 in the current tax year you will need to wait until the next tax year to invest a further £20,000 in any ISA account. 
It will be dependant on your ISA provider if they allow you to reinvest in the same account each year or not. 
Individual Savings Accounts (ISAs)
Thank you.
