Hi Dennyboy, sorry to hear you are having so much trouble. We just submitted a copy of our UK passports to “demonstrate our right” to move back and live there. No other documents were supplied or even requested. Your removal company should help you with this though,  they will across these types of scenarios all the time. Good luck.

Thanks , will contact them  , also my Brothers having a word with the landlord .

That’s very odd. When we moved back, we had no fixed address so used a relatives, we were not asked for any documents either.

No one moving back will have any evidence with an address on it, I would ask again.

You should never pay rent without a signed lease surely 

This person is a personal friend of my brothers so thought I’d have no problem getting paperwork . 

Just heard from uk government, my tor application has been refused as I can’t provide proof of address I’m moving to . 
I’ve  paid two months rent , and this person still hasn’t provided me with any paperwork as proof

Hey Den, have you made the move yet? I’ve got my citizenship 6 months ago, nothing left for in Oz, I’m aiming to return to the UK by next March (for good), so I better start planning the return move. 

The very best of luck , it’s a bit of a pain but worth it . I’m just waiting on email regarding my tor form . 
The earlier you start the better

Thank you , yes , I’ll inform the electoral roll , thanks for advising me . Should have made the move years ago , better late night than never .

Hi red rose . Boxes were picked up bt seven seas yesterday , just waiting on the tor form being cleared .

You will need to complete a transfer of residence (TOR) form for HMRC to declare that you don’t need to pay VAT on any goods you are taking back. If you are moving an animal they need to be declared on it. If you are not taking anything other than a suitcase I don’t suppose you need to complete one.

Yes you will have to give notice.  What's more, you will have to tell the superannuation company that you're retiring. That's not a problem, because you can "change your mind" after you've got the money and they won't chase you for it. 

Make sure you get the lump sum and put it in your bank account BEFORE  you leave Australia, otherwise you'll get done for UK tax.

Thanks marisa, this is great info , will look into doing this ASAP
