UK tax on CAD$ already taxed???
hi im trying to work out if hubby will be taxed ( and how we go about filling in forms etc) when he moves to canada and paypal's to uk earnings that he had been taxed on in Canada, to support us in the UK. surely he cant be taxed twice on the same earnings... or can he? this is blighty
also as he is leaving a month into new tax year in uk, how does he claim tax on earnings in uk already hacked away at by HMRC? i know there is a form but i cant for the life of me find.

However, if he is just working abroad he might remain tax-resident in the UK. With you staying in the UK it is not a clear-cut situation. However, transfers between him and you out of tax paid income are personal matters and are not taxable.

The UK tax on the Canadian earnings can be avoided if the employee becomes non-resident for UK tax purposes. Otherwise, if UK tax residence is not broken, a credit can be claimed for the Canadian tax paid. If the employee is not a Self Assessment Tax Return filer every year, form P85 should be submitted to HM Revenue & Customs with form P45 to request the PAYE refund for the current year. This is assuming the employee is becoming non-resident.

Yes he is emigrating Wth us following when we can afford it, PR application will be filed thru BC pnp (so it's expedited) in about a month. So as long as he is not a uk tax resident the tax paid in Canada is sufficient.
