Hi all,
I hoped you could give me some advice on my situation.
I currently work in the UK but I'm quitting my job at the end of the month to go and live and work in Australia. The company I currently work for would like me to do some work for them after I leave on a contract basis.
I'm unsure as to how my tax arrangement would work in the UK. Am I best getting paid into my UK bank account and then filling in a tax return for the UK every year? I won't be doing much work and could be below the tax free allowance so would this mean I could make £9440 next financial year without being liable for tax?
Alternatively am I best setting up a limited company? I'm not sure this is the best option as I won't be doing that much work and it could mean extra paperwork and hassle for very little benefit.
I've talked to an umbrella company but they told me I could use them as I wouldn't be living in the UK.
If anybody can give any advice or pointers then it'd be greatly appreciated.
Neil
