Season’s Greetings
A little light Christmas Cheer below..
I spotted this in the readers queries section of the leading magazine for tax advisers – a message from a seasonal character seeking help with his tax affairs.
“ Seasonal tax
On a visit to the UK last year I picked up a copy of your magazine and wonder if readers can advise me. I am non-domiciled and non-resident (I think) in the UK – no permanent home here – but each year I work temporarily in the UK for a short period.
The work is unpaid, but I do receive benefits in kind; glasses of port, mince pies and the like. I am rather concerned that I have not declared these to HMRC in the past. Should I have done so and is there an annual tax liability to be paid on these gifts or benefits? And if there is, how is the tax calculated under self assessment? “
Best Wishes for a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
ps if you need any help with your tax returns whilst you have some time off over the Festive Season please do get in touch. I am of course happy to help with your tax returns, give tax advice, offer help as a tax consultant/ advisor, give tax advisory services as a tax advisor / accountant covering London and all points west - West End, Ealing, Mayfair, Knightsbridge, Chiswick, Fulham, Chelsea, Notting Hill, Belgravia, Bayswater, Kensington, Ladbroke Grove, Kingston, Marylebone, Barnes, Putney, Richmond, Wandsworth, Kew, Putney.
