Hi HMRC Administrator, As a permanent resident in Hong Kong, I am still receiving monthly Old Age Living Allowance issued by the Hong Kong SAR Government after moving to the UK. This is a kind of means-tested social benefit. It is my understanding that this payment is exempted for taxation in UK pursuant to Article 17 of the tax agreement between the UK government and the Hong Kong SAR government. Grateful if you would advise if I still need to report this allowance in SA 106. Thank you.

Hi HMRC Administrator, If self-assessment for tax return was submitted and payment also made for 2023-24 before the deadline, would it be possible to re-submit for rectification of an error which had caused overpayment and then get refund for the overpayment. Grateful for your advice.
