    You're across the tax position in Australia? Best regards.

    https://www.gm-parent-visas.com/parent-visa-grant-numbers-year-to-30-june-2024/ We have received details of the number of Australian parent visas granted during the year to 30 June 2024. Best regards.

    Thanks for your kind words, Linda - and for asking us to help. Sending best wishes for your future in Australia!

Best regards.

    Maybe check with your former employer's payroll department to make sure the sum has been reported correctly to the ATO? Best regards.

    https://www.gm-parent-visas.com/new-visa-application-charges-for-2024_25/ New Visa Application Charges are effective from today (1 July 2024). Charges for 1st VACs (payable when the visa application is submitted) have been increased in line with the Consumer Price Index (CPI), rounded to the nearest $5. Best regards.

    Remember the SA109 Residence supplement is required to be submitted with the Self Assessment tax return when you're not a resident of the UK. Lots of people get themselves in a stew over this - might need to buy some tax software to submit the SA109 ... Best regards.

    That's not correct. In the UK the mortgage interest is claimed as a tax credit equal to interest amount paid x 20%. So long as your marginal rate of income tax in the UK isn't more than 20% there is no difference between the two approaches. This is unlikely to be an issue for you as a non UK resident person. Best regards.

    No, you can't (or shouldn't) claim a tax offset in Australia for PAYE deducted from a UK source pension which is solely taxable in Australia by virtue of Article 17 of the UK-Australia tax treaty. You should claim a tax repayment from HMRC for the period when the pension is solely taxable in Australia. Best regards.

    Hi Andy. Yes, the Certificate of Residency now seems to be needed as well as the HMRC Tax Treaty form. Nice of the ATO and HMRC to let us know ... anyone would think they add these hurdles to make it difficult for taxpayers to be compliant ... Onwards! Best regards.

    If you are residing in Australia and the income is taxable in Australia - ie you aren't a temporary tax resident (as defined) - you disregard the UK personal allowance when working out the taxable amount for Aus tax purposes. Best regards.

    Please feel able to complete the enquiry form at bdh Tax if you'd like to discuss this issue - see my signature block below. Best regards.

    bdh Tax is a friendly firm of tax accountants, helping clients with the preparation of their UK and Aus tax returns. We’re looking for someone to join the team in our Perth office. You will be someone who has past experience preparing UK tax returns – at least 12 months – and have a visa that allows you to live and work in Australia. Job sharing is available, as are working hours that fit around the school run. Please contact me if you are interested. Best regards.

    If you are stuck on a basic issue such as this maybe it is time to pay for the support of a registered migration agent ...? Best regards.
