RE: Self assessment - interest on early tax payment?
Hi Phil,
If you pay the amount of tax you are due to pay by a due date and pay it early, you do not recieve repayment supplement. If you paid more tax than you were due to pay by the due date, then repayment supplement would be paid on the excess, provided the excess was repaid to you.
Thank you. -

RE: US pension and UK Tax
Hi ROBERT,
There is nothing from a tax perspective, to prevent you from renting a residential property in the UK.
The number of days that you can remain in the UK and not be tax resident, will depend on your individual circumstances.
You will need to review the guidance on residence at RDR3 (RDR3 Statutory Residence Test) and take the statutory residence tests to find out now long you can stay in the UK and not be liable to tax on your world-wide income.
Thank you. -

RE: Money from selling property oversea
Hi Denise,
If you are resident in the UK when you dispose of your German home, then you may have UK Capital Gains tax to pay.
If the property was your main residence, you can claim private residence relief.
Have a look at:
HS283 Private Residence Relief (2024).
To calculate whether you have a gain or not, you can use the calculator at:
Tax when you sell property
All figures used in the calculation should be in UK pounds sterling.
The disposal should be declared in a self assessment tax return.
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 are exchange rates at https://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ukgwa/20231016190054/
Exchange rates from HMRC in CSV and XML format.and for older rates at https://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ukgwa/20100602124114/
http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/exrate/.
You are free to use any of the supplied rates or one of your own choosing.
If you paid German Capital Gains tax, then you can claim a foreign tax credit.
If you were not resident in the UK in the tax year, you disposed of the property, then there is nothing to declare to HMRC.
