  • UK non resident working for a UK LLP but WFH Australia

    Hi, I am a non-resident UK citizen living in Australia but working as a 'salaried member' of an UK LLP Partnership, working from home but living in Australia. Being in a Partnership, I am classified as self-employed and my employer collects tax and NI from my monthly pay. Every year I submit the tax through self-assessment. My work is UK based and there is no permanent establishment in Australia. Having done the residency checks, I am liable to pay tax in Australia. Questions: 1. Can I ask my employer to stop collecting tax and NI on my behalf so I can now pay these directly to Australia's Tax authority? 2. Or would my employer need to collect tax and NI on my behalf and pay HMRC directly? 3. If they have to collect on my behalf and pay HMRC, can I request a refund from HMRC to then be able to pay Australian authorities? 4. Would I need to submit the P85 form to HMRC? 5. Is there anything my employer needs to do to ensure they do not have any liabilities from my working arrangement here in the UK? 6. What would you suggest is the easiest way to not pay tax in the UK based on my situation to avoid my employer going through the hassle of my personal situation? I have property rental income here in the UK and savings interest which I will continue to pay through self-assessment here in UK. I have had a look at the links that were sent to me previously however these questions were not answered. Please help.
