RE: Gifting Property
Hi,
If the property is jointly owned by your parents, they each may have a capital gain tax liability if they gift the property to you and or your siblings. If a gain arises, they each will have 60 days from the completion date to report and pay any Capital Gains Tax.
There is a capital gains calculator at:
Work out tax relief when you sell your home
If you own your home (or a share in it) your tax-free threshold can increase to £500,000 if: you leave it to your children (including adopted, foster or stepchildren) or grandchildren and your estate is worth less than £2 million.

RE: Split year treatment
Hi HK user & mrk.li
If you qualify for split year then you only report any foreign income for the UK part of the year.

If you do not qualify then you will need to report all your foreign income to the UK.

The guidance at RDRM12150 at GOV.UK will help you work out if split year treatment applies.

RE: VAT refund delay
Hi,
Our timescales for repayment returns is 30 net days so I'm surprised you have not heard anything by now.
Please contact our VAT team again as we will need to find the officer who is processing the claim and get in touch with them urgently.

RE: Moving abroad
Hi,
A P85 should be used to inform HMRC that you are leaving the United Kingdom.
Get your Income Tax right if you're leaving the UK
There is a self assessment criteria tool, which will help you work out if a tax return is required. If a tax return is not required, you will need to contact HMRC to advise them of this. This will prevent future tax returns being issued.
Thank you. -
