Re: Tax relief on UK pension income limited to 10%?

Sorry Gemiran, misunderstood your question. Yes, we were able to both split the pension and receive the $2,000 credit.

Re: Tax relief on UK pension income limited to 10%?

No joy over the GBP2,000, but the pension split was accepted, which obviously helped.

Re: Tax relief on UK pension income limited to 10%?

For the first payment received, the provider will probably deduct tax at the emergency (month 1) rate. This means that they will not reflect the appropriate tax-free personal allowance and you will...

Re: Tax relief on UK pension income limited to 10%?

Thanks Gemiran.

To summarise:


I don't have any issue with the tax HMRC is deducting. If it has been too high initially, there has been a rebate.
My understanding was that any UK tax paid...

Re: Tax relief on UK pension income limited to 10%?

Thanks for the reply.

Just to be clear, I declared the full gross amount of the drawdown, even though 25% was tax-free in the UK. It would be nice for the CRA to adopt a similar approach, but...

Re: Tax relief on UK pension income limited to 10%?

You're right that GBP30,000 seems to be the break-even point, but I think the maths is a little different.

From the 30,0000, can deduct 7,500 (25% tax-free element) and 11,500 personal allowance,...

Re: Tax relief on UK pension income limited to 10%?

I duly completed the DTT form, got the CRA to confirm I was a Canadian resident for tax purposes and submitted this to UK HMRC. They replied "No relief is due under the terms of the UK/Canada double...

Re: Tax relief on UK pension income limited to 10%?

Re: Tax relief on UK pension income limited to 10%?

Thanks Steve.
2. Annuities arising in a Contracting State (UK) and paid to a resident of the other Contracting State (Canada) may be taxed in that other State (Canada). However, such annuities may...

Re: Tax relief on UK pension income limited to 10%?

I stand to be corrected, but since I am a Canadian resident for tax purposes I don't think I can ask the UK to pay back any Canadian tax.
You are right that there is no 25% tax free allowance here....

Tax relief on UK pension income limited to 10%?

Background:


I have just received a reassessment of tax for 2016.
I drew GBP30,000 from my UK SIPP and paid GBP3,598 on the taxable element of GBP22,500 (after 25% tax-free element)....
