I have not been present for the whole of the 2011-12 tax year. I already submitted P109 to indicate this. I also submitted my P85 in 2007 when I first left UK. Since that time I have been classed as non-resident by HMRC (i.e. I haven't been in UK for more than 6 months for each financial year).
I am working from outside of the UK, however I am registered for self-assessment. The work I do is for UK individuals/small-businesses and they pay my UK bank. I was not present in the UK to do any of this work.
To add to the complication, I can not pay any local tax in the country I am currently residing. I've been on tourist visas while travelling and have done so for the past 5 years.
My clients have mostly been UK based and I've never had any business from the counties that I've travelled to.
I wasn't sure if I need to declare these earnings on my tax return. I called HMRC a few times and explained as I have here. The first time they said I only need to declare my bank interest.
The 2nd time I called they said I should declare these earnings, and also submit the P109. I submitted my P109, and now I am looking to declare these earnings. However, I am still confused if I should pay the UK tax on these earnings.
I recently tried to make these amendments in the online self-assessment. I added the earnings to the 'net profit' field (previously blank). It then calculates that I will owe thousands of pounds.
Basically I am confused on what I would have to pay. Would I need to pay this figure that the online assessment splits out, or will this get reviewed with regard to my P109?
Currently I didn't submit my amendment and thought I should get advise first.
Thanks for any guidance and help.
