HMRC Domande frequenti sui clienti

Sure, you can easily notify HMRC about your change of employment. Since your employer pays you through Pay As You Earn (PAYE), they will send details of your earnings and tax deductions to HMRC. Once HMRC receives these details, they'll automatically adjust your tax code if necessary, to ensure you're paying the right amount of tax. Therefore, you do not need to directly update HMRC about your new job. But do make sure your new employer has your correct tax code. If you think your tax code is wrong, you can contact HMRC directly.

Business insurance cost is typically a deductible expense for purposes of calculating your profit for tax purposes. This cost can vary depending on factors such as the size of your business, the industry you're in, and the specific types of risks you need to insure against. VAT returns are reports you provide to HMRC to show how much VAT you are due to pay them. These returns are typically submitted every three months. The VAT returns show the amount of VAT you've charged to others (output VAT) and the amount of VAT you've been charged by other businesses (input VAT). The VAT you need to pay to HMRC is the difference between your output and input VAT. If your input VAT is greater than your output VAT, you can claim the difference back from HMRC.

Yes, you will need to apply for double taxation relief separately for your state pension. Double taxation relief in the UK doesn't automatically apply to all kinds of income once it's granted. It is specific to the type of income for which it's been granted in your case private pensions, and doesn't automatically extend to other types of income like state pensions. Please ensure that you mention all income streams when applying or reapplying for double taxation relief.

This could be due to the way your tax code has been applied. Your employer uses your tax code to work out how much tax to deduct from your pay. If you have the wrong tax code, you could end up paying too much tax. It could be you're on an emergency tax code, or your tax code might have been adjusted to recover tax you owe from a previous year, for example. If you think your tax code is wrong, it would be a good idea to contact HMRC or refer to the HMRC website for more details.

When someone dies, their property is not usually subject to Capital Gains Tax (CGT) immediately. Instead, the deceased's estate, their executor, or administrator will typically inherit the property at its market value at the time of death. This market value will then act as the new cost basis for calculating CGT if and when the property is later sold or disposed of. So, if the property has increased in value when sold, CGT may be payable on the difference between the market value at the time of death and the sale price. Always consult a tax professional for specific advice regarding your situation.
