Hi jimbouk,

I can't comment on the child situation as I do not have any but I am qualified to comment on the tax implications.There are lots of rules concerning residency with HMRC eg. whether you are classed as UK Resident, UK Resident but not Ordinarily Resident, Not UK Resident etc.

Factors such as your employment contract being from a Local company rather than a UK company, connections back in the UK, date you leave the UK and if during a tax year if you qualify for split-year treatment with HMRC, if you are planning to permanently leave the UK, the list goes on!

There is too much to go into detail here but I am based in Dubai so happy to help you further if required :)
Does that mean that you advise on these matters for a living?

Just what I was thinking, there's about 3 posts from her now all with the same theme. Touting for business methinks....

I appreciate you have a business to run, the tax/residence status can be complicated and soliciting business by spieling out the jargon is a potential working business plan but it is not in the spirit of the forum. he is asking specifically about the split year concession and the answer is that he will benefit from the split year concession providing he is overseas for a full tax year and has left UK on a contract of employment. Yes he needs to be advised to get professional advice, but there is no reason not to answer his question.
