Leaving the UK P85 Form
Leaving the UK P85 Form
Could I ask, when or if you have filled out a P85 form, has anyone filled one out to request tax paid to be returned to you when you have left savings in the UK.
I suppose what I am asking is if you leave savings earning interest in the UK, do you still fill out a P85 form to get your tax back from earnings. Or do you wait until the end of the tax year and fill out a R40 form. The R40 form allows you to request back the tax paid on savings and earnings at the end of the tax year, if you have paid too much tax above your personal allowance, it basically gives you the rest of your allowance, if you have not received it throughout the full tax year.
