RE: Pension Lump Sum, self assessment and Student loan repayments
Hi oldfoodiegal Gardner,
As your pension lump sum will be tax-free, it does not need to be entered on your Self Assessment return. As such, it should not affect your calculated student loans repayments.
Thank you. -
RE: Personal allowance after applying split year treatment
Hi dbartolozzi,
Please have a look at the notes for Sa109 (Residence, remittance basis etc notes Tax year 6 April 2023 to 5 April 2024 (2023–24)) boxes 15 and 16.
If you are entitled to claim personal allowances in your tax return, you would tick either box 15 or 16 and enter in box 17, the codes for the country or countries of which you are a national and/or resident.
Thank you. -
RE: CGT on second home
Hi GW,
No, you cannot do that. If the extension was on the second property, it can be set against any gain on its disposal. The extension on your principle private residence relates solely to that property and can be set against any gain on that property, along with private residence relief.
Thank you. -
RE: Moving to US - CGT on Investments?
Hi JH007,
If you are not resident in the UK, when you dispose of assets that are not residential property and land, you will not pay Capital Gains on the disposal, provided you do not return to the UK within 5 years.
You will need to declare the disposal in your country of residence and pay Capital Gains tax there.
Thank you. -
RE: GGT on gifting a share of my 2nd home to a child.
Hi Peter,
You will be liable to Capital Gains tax if you gift the flat to your children, using the market value of the property. You can claim private residence relief for the period that the property was your main residence, to reduce the gain.
Guidance can be found at: Shares and Capital Gains Tax (Self Assessment helpsheet HS284).
There is a calculator at: Tax when you sell property, which follows on to the Capital Gains service, where you can report and pay the Capital Gains tax due within 60 days of the completion date.
Thank you.
