When do I claim back tax in the UK?

Can i claim my tax back if i leave uk?

  • I am now living in Guernsey, channel islands, which i know is technically part of the uk, but have their own tax laws and tax codes, does this mean i can claim my tax back from england? I worked part of this tax year, from april till june and earnt £3931.00 in this tax year portion, i also paid £510 tax in this current year in England

  • Answer:

    The tax free allowance in the UK this year is 5250, because you earned below this amount you can claim back all the tax that you paid. The Inland Revenue need a copy of a P85, and they maybe require your P60 and P45 as well as possibly a P91 which will give them a history of your employment. You can either do this yourself or use an agency that can often by quicker as they have experience and chase up the claim. One such agency is: http://www.taxfix.co.uk You can claim upto 6 years ago. I hope this helps.

not [omitted] likely, mate while you were working in England, you were protected by their police and benefitted [j/k] from their public structures, didn't you? besides -- have you ever heard of any politicians anywhere who gave back after first getting their hooks into your pay packet? ;-)

Almost certainly,because the figure you mention will be smaller than your tax code allowance

Yes of course you can claim it back from Uk if you are due it. Just complete the repayment claim form...which i believe is downloadable from the HMRC website..

You will need to complete a form called P85 which tells your tax office you have left the UK. Attach parts 2&3 of your P45 to it and send it to the PAYE office which dealt with your last employer. From what you've said, what you earned in the year is less than the personal allowance so you should get back all the tax you paid in that year. You can get a P85 from http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/cnr/p85.pdf

Yes. Complete a tax return for the period you were here after 5/4/07 and submit it to HMRC.

I don't get points any more

hi i know its slightly different but the same rules should apply. i left eire 4 yrs ago today actually, and i claimed back €1500 ok. you should get info from inland revenue easily enough. the irish tax year starts jan 1 and its pro rata even if its only £50 quid its yours.
