Cancellation of DT relief - coding CY
Before you issue a tax code for the year in which a double taxation exemption has been cancelled, you will need to calculate the amount of income that will be liable to UK tax for all income sources that were previously exempt. This amount will be entered as the employment estimated earnings amount in IABD.
1. In Excel select SEES then Other Calculators + Forms + NPPS then Dates Calculator
Select time apportionment tab
‘Base Period’
‘From’ date is start date of current tax year
‘To’ date is the following 5 April
‘Amount’ is total estimated amount of income for the year
‘Apportionment Period’
‘From’ date is date of cancellation of exemption
‘To’ date is following 5 April
This calculates the amount of income liable to UK tax
Print a copy of the calculation
Repeat for each source of income that was previously exempt
Where no state pension is received, or the state pension was not exempt, go to step 3
2. For state pension, only the liable amount of state pension is entered in the State Pension Box in IABD
Calculate the amount of liable state pension as in step 1 above
3. Update employment estimated earnings to show the liable estimated amount
In IABD Landing, select other form and relevant tax year. Enter date of receipt
Drill down into Employment Estimated Earnings
Enter the liable amount, as calculated in step 1, for all income that was previously covered by the exemption
