Amazing - that does help indeed! Thank you

Hi Andrew, Many thanks for your help! So I understand that it would be fine to move things around within an existing UK Self Investment Pension (SIPP) pot. What we would need to check with our provider is if we are allowed to make any additional contributions to it whilst living in Oz. Understood regarding the ISA. Thank you.

Thanks for your reply! We wouldn't want to open up a new one, but rather add or sell holdings we have within an existing ISA - with that in mind, do you know if that's okay to do when living overseas? I can't imagine you would basically be stuck with badly performing funds forever and aren't allowed to readjust....that doesn't really make sense Our SIPP is a pension as well and holds funds, no individual stocks. It's all managed online so we would be able to switch shares/sell ourselves and wouldn't need to go via representatives in the UK. We also are not eligible to release any funds yet for another few decades, so that would not be applicable for us. How are the rules looking on this re the SIPP? Thanks again.

Hi everyone Hopefully a couple of easy questions to answer for the seasoned members here - We hold a SIPP and ISAs in the UK and understand that we are not allowed to make any further payments into these whilst we are living in Australia and are tax residents here. Are we correct in assuming that? Moreover, we've recently been paid some divided into one of the SIPPs and I was wondering if we are allowed to re-invest it into the assets we hold? Surely that must be okay? And, if we choose to add a new holding to our ISA/SIPP (switch out a bad performing one for a new holding, use money of sale) without adding any money into our UK pots, are we correct to assume that that is okay as well? Many thanks for your kind help. Mike
