RE : Still confused by Payments to registered pensions schemes
Hi ,
If the pension contribution is deducted from your wage before tax is calculated then you will already have received relief and
would not declare on your Self Assessment.
If the pension contributions are from your net wage then it would be your contribution plus the 20% relief that you would declare on
the Self Assessment tax return.
Thank you . -
RE : Are lease extension costs deductable from Capital Gains on a rented property?
Hi ,CG70752 advises "A ‘long lease’ is a lease with over 50 years to run.
Such a lease is not a wasting asset for CGT purposes until its remaining term is less than 50 years.
Long leases are treated in the same manner as freeholds and are relatively straightforward".
( CG70752 - Leases: introduction: long and short leases ).
Please have a look at helpsheet HS292
( HS292 Capital Gains Tax, land and leases (2023 ) for more information.
Thank you .

If no foreign tax has been deducted, it is just the uk employment page.
