Guest leevine1975 Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 Hi. We are very stressed at the moment just wondered if any of you can help us. We are flying out to Perth on the 5th January to start our new life. We are coming out on a student visa. We have rented out our house and we have a couple of other properties we rent out. I have been told to get in touch with Inland Revenue to advise them we are going overseas so that we can get ex-pat registration Number so we dont get taxed in the UK and would Australia Tax us on these properties even though we are on a Temporary Visa???? :arghh: Your help and advise would be very much appreciated.
Alan Collett Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 You should be completing a form NRL1: http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/cnr/nrl1.pdf On a temporary residency visa the general rule is that only Australian source income is subject to tax in Australia. Feel able to contact me off forum if you want to discuss further. Best regards.

You are going to get taxed in one country of the other, depending on the amount of profit after expenses. The NRL1 form that you allude to, is not a form that you fill in to ensure that you won't get taxed, there is no such provision for that. Completing this form ensures that you will not get tax deducted at source. Very different.
akiralx Posted December 26, 2010 Posted December 26, 2010 You should be completing a form NRL1:http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/cnr/nrl1.pdf The snag for us is that form asks for the agent's HMRC reference number but our agent doesn't have one, and applied for one a year ago with no response.\ I agree with Alan that for temp residents overseas rental income is not subject to Aus tax.
Guest guest32776 Posted December 26, 2010 Posted December 26, 2010 I have properties in the Uk and am also on temporary residency. I don't pay tax at source with the HMRC number (your agent must have one) and I seem to still have my earnings calculated with the six thousand tax free allowance (12k if you are two) in the UK. One great thing with being a temporary resident is that if you sell a property in this stage there is no liability for capital gains tax in the UK - hugely advantageous

Remember that most temporary visaholders who are living in Australia are not subject to Aus tax on UK source income ... Best regards.
