How to file for Tax refund when partial year in UK and moved permanently to India

[manishu]

Hello,

After staying in UK for a little more than 2 years, I permanently moved back to India in mid-July 2018. I submitted P85 informing about my move and received an acknowledgement from HMRC Tax service wherein they advised to file Tax return at the year end.

After this move I have no income in UK, nor planning to return to UK. All my income and residency is in India and tax on income are as per India's taxation law. Please note -UK has double tax avoidance treaty with India (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/india-tax-treaties)

While preparing UK tax assessment, not sure how to response to few points:

1. Taxpayer residency status:
Only 2 options available - 1. UK 2. Scottish; no option for India - which option should I select?

2. How many employments:
While in UK I had only one… after moving to India, I worked in India based operations of the same company - what should I select?

3. Foreign Income:
What to select per above explanation that all income in India is taxed in India; also double tax avoidance treaty between UK & India


Thank you!!
