Hello,Could you please kindly reply to my previous questions? We still feeling so confused about it. Thank you so much.

Hello, Thank you for your response. I'm still seeking clarification on the following points: In regards to the conversion from HKD to USD, and then from USD to GBP, aside from the interest tax generated from my USD deposit, are there any other taxes I need to pay? Does it mean that any differences generated during the conversion process of the three currencies, regardless of the amount, are subject to taxation? If so, which type of tax would it be? Would it involve taxing the principal amount as well, or only the differences? Furthermore, if I were to travel abroad in the future and exchange currencies, such as Euros, would the difference in exchange rates also be taxable? I would greatly appreciate your clarification on these matters. Thank you.

Hello! Last year I arrived in the UK on a BNO visa and have since become a tax resident. Let's say I have HKD 100,000. If I convert it to USD and deposit it to preserve its value, I'll report the interest income to HMRC. If, after several months or years, I need to convert this USD to GBP for living expenses or to buy property. Would the conversion from HKD to USD, and then from USD to GBP, be subject to income tax, capital gains tax (CGT), or considered capital gains? Besides interest income, would I be liable for any other taxes? Thank you very much!

Hello ! I have something about taxes would like to ask. I arrived in the UK in November 2023 and started working in December, but my payslip shows that I have not been subject to income tax. The company says this is because my income before April 2024 has not exceeded the income tax threshold for that tax year. Do I need to report my income for the period from December 2023 to March 2024 to HMRC? Thank You !

Dear HMRC officer, Greetings. I arrived in the UK in November 2023 on a BNO visa and am currently doing part time job. I have several tax-related questions: 1. If I transfer savings from before I became a UK tax resident to my UK bank account, do I need to pay tax on the principal amount transferred, in addition to the interest earned on those savings? (I do not use the remittance basis.) 2. If I transfer savings from before becoming a UK tax resident to the UK and use them for a bank fixed term deposit, besides the interest or dividend income generated by this money, will I be subject to any other taxes? 3. I arrived in the UK in November 2023 and started working in December, but my payslip shows that I have not been subject to income tax. The company says this is because my income before April 2024 has not exceeded the income tax threshold for that tax year. Do I need to report my income for the period from December 2023 to March 2024 to HMRC? 4. I have consulted with various accountants about tax issues, only to realize later that they were not qualified tax advisors. Where can I find qualified tax advisors? Thank you. Thank you very much!

Thank you very much! I have one more question to ask. Is this an appropriate approach if I report all the interest income from a joint account in my own name on my tax return form, but my family member who own the same joint account do not report it? Thanks!

Is there any deadline which I must transfer my savings to UK or else the amount transferred will be taxable? 4.
