anyone on here know the answer to this tax query. It is a serious question which someone needs answering, not a riddle or anything.


"I left the UK permanently in January 2005 and took up residency in Dubai
where I now work. I have not returned to the UK since and am non resident.

When I left the UK I agreed a termination payment with my UK employer. The
termination of salary was paid to me on 30 June 2005 and I received a P45
showing income received and tax paid in the 2005/2006 tax year. For the 12
months leading up to the termination I wasn't actually working for the
company and was on long-term sick leave which is why I left for Dubai in the
previous tax year.

As I left the UK permanently in January 2005 and class myself as non resident
from that date am I entitled to reclaim a full refund of taxes paid on my
termination payment in the 2005/2006 tax year ?."

Any help much appreciated.

if you were getting paid you have to pay the taxes. you can claim back NI (pension) contributions if you want though

ah sorry , you have to check your p45 and see if the termination salary included your whole personal allowance and not only 3 months. If it didn;t you can claim back 9 months of allowance

I've just had a crazy idea,why not get in touch with the tax office ? ;\

there may be reasons in this instance why that is not a good idea.

^ my apologies I presumed it was a genuine request to adhere to his legal obligations re-payments of tax.

It looks like you should get a refund. But you will have to talk to the tax office.

So you want tax back, but you dont want to talk to HMRC as that's 'not a good idea'. So you've fiddled tax but still want to claim a refund?

Forget it, you are out of date for claiming a refund.
Report Early Morning Riser • May 23, 2014 7:53 PM BST
You are correct RON. he's left it too late to claim
