Hi KEVCO60,
The 25% tax free is what the pension company would provide and they would tax anything above that. If your total income for the year is then less than your allowances any extra tax deducted would then be refunded.
Thank you.

Hi Muhammad,

I would be grateful if you would clarify further which sort of documents you referring to?

Hi Martine,

Hi Jianming,
We cannot advise you how much tax you should pay in this forum, as we can only provide general information.  The sum you received after your tax free lump sum was paid is taxble in the tax year in which you received it and should be declared to HMRC.
Thank you.

Hi iwonaw,
Your parents will have to submit separate claims for a repayment of tax.  They can submit their claims together in the same envelope, but will need to ensure that all the documents can be easily separated into two claims. They should include the P45, but keep P45(1A) for their own records.  Repayments from HMRC are made in pounds sterling only.  If your parents do not have a UK bank account, they can nominate a trusted person to receive the payment on their behalf, by confirming this in writing.
Thank you.

 

Hi uma,
There are no expenses that you can claim for food, simply because we all need to eat, to survive.  The other areas of your question cannot be answered in this forum.
Guidance on IR35 can be found at Understanding off-payroll working (IR35).  
For advice in these areas, you would need to contact our self assesment helpline on 0300 200 3310, contact our webchat facility at Contact HMRC or seek professional advice.
Thank you.

Hi Harvey57 Jackiboy57,
From 6 April 2017 the whole foreign pension or annuity payable to a UK resident will be chargeable to tax. This means that pensions paid to UK residents will be taxed in the same way whether the scheme is based in the UK or overseas.  From 6 April 2017 lump sums paid by non-UK pension schemes to UK residents will be taxable regardless of the type of pension scheme paying the lump sum. However, the taxing provision and the taxable amount will depend on the nature of the scheme making the lump sum payment.
Thank you.

Hi Charles,
It would need to be the original or certified document that you submit. The certified copy must be signed as a true copy and stamped with a date by a government department, legal organisation or a medical body for example in the UK  a solicitors office, doctor's surgery or the post office.
Thank you.

Hi Peter,
Depending on the size of your NHS pension, that could be possible. Please contact us by webchat or phone via Income Tax: general enquiries to allow us to check your record and confirm that we can do that for you.
Thank you.
