If you meet the first automatic UK test then you are resident in which case you cannot be non-resident under the third automatic overseas test and thus do not put X in Box 7.

If you are non-resident then put X in Box 1 and also put X in Box 7 if third automatic. overseas test is satisfied.

I put x in box 1 because I'm not resident
But I don't work abroad so don't satisfy the third automatic overseas test therefore I didn't put an x in box 7
What follows from there am I still considered non resident for tax purposes

Non-residence may arise if any of the automatic overseas tests are satisfied (or, even of none are satisfied, but none of the automatic UK tests are satisfied and none of the STT are satisfied).

Box 1 should in such a situation be completed.

Box 4 should also be completed. Only those between Box 7 and 14 which apply should be completed (thus do not complete Box 7 if you do not satisfy that test).
