everywhere gal Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 we are both 60 retired, self funded retirees in OZ both have joint Oz/UK and Irish EU passports, and contemplating returning to Uk. Been here 37 years, with many trips back, and definitely not entitled to any UK benefits. Just trying to work out if it can be done, what are the tax implications, as we have a modest australian share portfolio and live from that, and own moderately priced home in a rural NSW town. So not sure where to start to enquire about this process. If all shares are fully franked here in OZ, can we leave them here, transfer the income from them to a UK bank account but would we be taxed AGAIN in UK. From reading UK Govt Tax dept site its very confusing. (the term self funded doesnt exist in UK!) any pointers as to where we can get good legitimate advice that would say once and for all, either forget it or enquire further. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew from Vista Financial Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Hi As this is purely tax related then this is outside the scope of my advice. Alan Collett would be the man to ask on this one. **MODS - Could this be moved to the Money and Finance forum (thanks)? Regards Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew from Vista Financial Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 If the Mods see it they will do it however you could just repost there if they do not pick it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
everywhere gal Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 must be a hot day here in NSW staying indoors and on here, many thanks will keep an eye out. both of us have done alot of investigating on here, but we seem to fall between the cracks and the UK tax site is beyond belief. we know the poms make it hard for themselves. Its early days but having the only family in UK is a future thought perhaps…..or a Lotto ticket and we could by a bolthole there as well huh? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
