RE:Employment lump sums included in P60
Hi Jinster768,
You will need to complete the additional information section of the return.
Online this will be - do you want to claim reliefs.
If you have had a redundancy payment up to £30,000, after any post-employment notice pay has been taken off, and against which your employer has allowed an exemption on, put the total amount that you received in box 9.
If your payment after any post-employment notice pay has been taken off, is more than the £30,000 limit, you’ll have to pay tax on the difference. Put the amount over £30,000 in box 5, any tax taken off in box 6 and the £30,000 limit in box 9.
Thank you. -
RE:Personal Savings Allowance and self assessment calculation
Hi SurreyFox,
This is still taxable income so shows as such on the calculation.
However, if the amount is below the personal savings allowance, you will see that the tax rate is 0%
This is shown further down on the full calculation on how your tax is calculated.
Thank you. -
RE:Capital Allowances on property sale
Hi sean003.5,
When calculating a Capital Gain, you can claim the cost of any work carried out to improve a property (for example, buiding an extension). However, normal maintenance costs (cleaning, refurbishing, decorating etc) cannot be claimed (though such expenses can be claimed against rental income).

RE:Self Assessment: Paying into registered pension schemes and overseas pension schemes
Hi Mark Seaton- fry,
Where the pension payments are taken from the salary before the employer calculates the tax due on the remaining 'taxable income', then full tax relief is given at source and no further relief is due.
Where tax is deducted first and them payments are made into a pension scheme.
The pension scheme provider, claims tax relief from HMRC and you declare the gross pension payment to HMRC who will give any additional relief.
Where further relief is due, this can be claimed via a Self Assessment tax return, in box 1 of page TR4 or in writing that includes supporting evidence.
For higher rate taxpayers, the basic rate band is increased by the gross pension payment amount, so that income is only taxed at 20% and not 40%.

Yes, you would need to enter the details.
On the tailor your tax return section you would answer 'yes' to the question did you receive other UK income for example share schemes
This will open the section to declare the details.

Marriage allowance
Hi pennyhm Cheng,
If you are the recipient of the marriage allowance transfer then you do not enter any details on the tax return.
Once submitted our systems will pick up that you receive the transfer and your Self Assessment calculation will be amended to include this.

RE:Do I need to pay CGT in UK again for selling my AUSTRALIAN property
Hi Joe Romeo,
As a UK resident, disposing of an overseas property, you are required to report the disposal in a Self Assessment tax return.
The date of completion of the disposal, is used to determine the tax year it is reported in.
If the completion date is on or after 6 April 2023 to 5 April 2024, it would be declared in your 2023 to 2024 tax return after 6 April 2024.
You would need to convert all the figures to pounds sterling, to include on your tax return.
The exchange rate is not set in stone, which is why you have a choice.
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 is a choice of exchange rates here:
Exchange rates from HMRC in CSV and XML format
Or from another source, such as the stock exchange
There is a calculator in that should help you work out your gain:

Thank you.
