self assessment woes- help please!

I’m trying to complete my SA for the tax year just ended but the online SA forms seem to have changed markedly since last year.
1. I can’t work out how I record interest from UK building societies as I received more than the £1000 threshold and a sum of £800 received after tax at 20% had been taken off at source.

The two boxes are
Taxed UK interest etc. Enter net amount after tax has been taken off.
Here I put £800 (£200 deducted at source)
Untaxed UK INTEREST. ENTER TOTAL AMOUNT
Here I put £224 as the actual sum was £1224.
Not sure whether I should put the full £1224 here?

I’ve been trying to send two pdfs in any other information but a red message keeps coming up saying the files are not correct and have to be PDFV1 but how do I convert my files to this version on my iPad Pro or on my pc?

UK banks pay interest gross. They stopped withholding basic rate tax a few years ago

There is no "allowance" for interest.

Some (or all) of the interest may be taxed at a 0% tax rate but that is different to there being an allowance.

You have to declare the £1,224.

Although abnak have stopped deducting tax from normal deposits they do still deduct tax from the interest element of PPI payouts. Not sure if this is the type of income the op is referring to but it might be.

Thanks for replies. I put the £1224 not £224.
Regarding submission of pdfs, I solved the problem by firing up my old Dell desktop running Windows7 and converting scans using a piece of windows freeware called PDF24. The resultant pdfs although V2 uploaded fine.
