Re: Dual taxation treaty

I think so. I (wrongly) assumed they would realise my other two pensions weren't taxable in the UK, but they never did. I've been paying tax on one since August last year and I'm in the process of...

Re: Dual taxation treaty

Thanks M.A. I tried that in writing (took almost two months to get a reply)! They replied twice wth the same letter saying I had to file the forms again. They said they need separate forms for...

Re: Dual taxation treaty

Good info Lansbury. I'll just file the same forms and pay the fee again for the subsequent pensions. I probably didn't make it clear by saying UK Gov pension. My wife is a US citiizen (as I am...

Re: Dual taxation treaty

Thanks Lansbury, we're kind of in the same boat as I have four pensions from England and my wife has one plus a UK gov pension. Did you send the same form again (US-individual 2002) and the 8802...

I filled the US-individual form 2002 in 2017 and sent it off with form 8802 (and the fee). I put the names of two small pensions I was receiving on there and my tax code became NT (no tax). When I...

Re: British vs. American spelling

Re: Here we go. Time to file for citizenship!

It's pretty quick in Charleston isn't it! I had my interview with tests and stuff 15th April last year (I was convinced I'd get the "When is tax day" question, but didn't). Ceremony was 10 days later...

Re: US passport/Certificate return times

Probably not! As you say, your passport is your official ID now. I'm probably just a bit OCD about all the paperwork we had to show to get here in the first place! :lol:

Re: BT Pension

I took my 10 year BT pension last year, but chose not to take the lump sum. I just took a bigger monthly payment as we had previous knowledge from when my wife took her NHS pension a couple of years...

Sorry, I should have been more specific. For citizenship. I wasn't sure if USCIS was affected. Thanks.

Re: UK pension lump sum and taxation
