NI and self assessment questions when moving in the EU

Postby fsiebrits » Thu May 15, 2014 9:37 pm

My husband and I are moving to Switzerland in a few months. He will be working full-time and on a permanent contract, however I won't be initially. We had considered keeping up our NI contributions, but from the HMRC website, I understand we may not need to do that as there are reciprocal agreements in place? Is that the case? However if I will not be working, would it be worthwhile for me to keep them up anyway?
In addition, I undertake some work from home on a self employed basis which I will be continuing with and would like to continue to be paid in the UK. I fill out a self assessment tax return each year so will continue to do this. How is the tax worked out for this? Also if we rent our property, can I declare this on my tax return, or do we both need to do this as it's in joint names?
Apologies for the various questions!
Thanks in anticipation

Hello fsiebrits,

With regards to your NI contributions, check out this website which you may find of use:
http://www.pensionsadvisoryservice.org. ... tributions

With regards to potential rental income from UK property, as the property is in both names you will both need to declare your share of the income on your self assessment tax returns.

Happy to help so if you need any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact me.
Kind regards,

Nikki Sizer
