Originally posted by skysies View PostWell, that won't be so easy to do. I understand that I would get (if I ever do) the NT code after 1 year or so living and working abroad. But not the moment I start working remotely from outside the UK.
So how can I convince either the client or the agency in the first couple of months (or year) that they should not be doing deemed payments? The only thing that would have changed in that period would be my location, but not my tax status, right? How could they be convinced that I should be outside IR35? Just by telling them that I hope to get (in a year) the NT tax code?
That's why I keep asking if I could claim retrospectively the paid taxes working inside IR35 once I get the NT tax code.

Originally posted by jamesbrown View PostThe NT code should apply once you’ve submitted your P85, I think. This would provide relief from PAYE taxes, but not NI. In short, you would avoid a deemed payment with a large chunk of tax removed, but some would be removed, and I’m not sure how easy it would be to get back. The ErNI, probably no chance, but I am not certain.Public Service Posting by the BBC - Bloggs Bulls**t Corp.

Originally posted by Fred BloggsTo be noted that the HMRC guidance is that if you normally complete a self assessment tax return, then you do not fill in a P85. Your tax resident status and claim for split year treatment is all handled thought the SATR. That works just fine, I've done it. Since contractors all fill in a SATR annually there is no requirement for a P85.Comment

Originally posted by jamesbrown View PostIf you complete a SATR, then you don't need to complete a P85, but I think the OP would be looking for a timely NT code to pass on to the fee payer, probably well before their SATR is due and I think a P85 is the route to get that.

Originally posted by Fred Bloggs View PostUnless I am missing something, the OP cannot be granted that until he has been out of the UK for a full tax year after the tax year in which he leaves. You do not get non-UK tax status the day you leave. Read RDR3 very carefully. (For example - Leave the UK April 4th 2019, OP may qualify as non UK tax resident from April 6th 2020. Leave the UK on April 7th 2019 that moves the date back to April 6th 2021. In the meantime, you apply on the SATR and may receive split year treatment for the year of departure. If split year were granted, that would mean you were indeed non tax resident from April 4th 2019 or April 7th 2019. You must also meet the overseas tests in full or your claim for split year and non tax resdiency fails). HTH.

Originally posted by jamesbrown View PostI am speaking from personal experience too having done this several times. You are non-resident from the moment your residency ends. Although the determination may be retrospective, the reality applies immediately the conditions are met and the NT coding reflects reality. You seem to be confusing the sequencing of obtaining recognition via an NT code with the facts regarding the statutory residency test, looking backwards. They are two separate things. When I last used a P85, it was possible to have this approved/reflected in advance of departure, but I think it now requires you to be in your non-resident status (i.e., after departure). The OP certainly needs advice on their residency status but, armed with that, they certainly don’t need to wait until the facts have been established looking backwards.Public Service Posting by the BBC - Bloggs Bulls**t Corp.

Originally posted by Fred Bloggs View PostVery good, then all the OP has to do is to call HMRC and if anyone answers the phone, he'll then know for certain. That's the only sure way he'll know how it works. I am confident my way worked (and still is working) and you are too. So, at this stage, the OP will have to call HMRC and find out for himself.Comment

Originally posted by jamesbrown View PostYeah, calling HMRC probably won't resolve anything. You simply cannot rely on their advice for atypical situations (because they would rather pull something out their **** than say they don't know). OP needs to speak to a professional and not rely on us or HMRC.Last edited by Fred Bloggs; 30 June 2020, 12:23.Public Service Posting by the BBC - Bloggs Bulls**t Corp.

It isn’t HMRC that decides, it’s Parliament and HMRC frequently has no clue about the legislation that binds them. In contrast, professionals do, so always speak to them first.Comment
