Tax Claim Forms when leaving the UK
It will be necessary to complete a P85 form when leaving the UK
HMRC require the P85 completed when leaving the UK before issuing any UK tax refund.
The P85 confirms your leaving date of leaving the UK and other relevant information relating to your UK and foregin employment status.
P45, P60 and P11d Certificates
It is highly recommended that any relevant P45, P60 and P11d forms are provided with any P85 leaving the UK claim.
Most importantly your final P45 should be provided with the P85. The P45 should be provided by your employer when you leave. If you cannot provide any necessary P45, P60 or P11d forms your previous employer(s) can provide a statement of earnings which will replace any missing P45, P60 or P11d.
Providing the P45, P60 and P11d certificates allows HMRC to process a UK tax back claim when leaving the UK quickly and efficiently.
Self Assessment Tax Return when leaving the UK
HMRC may require a self assessment tax return to be completed.
HMRC will notify you if you are required to complete a self assessment tax return. There are many reasons why HMRC will request a self assessment tax return to be submitted including self employment or rental income in the UK.
The self assessment tax return has to be submitted before any UK tax back is issued.
A person's eligibility for a UK Tax Rebate is particular to them and will need to be determined by an examination of their personal circumstances.
