(e)the duties of A's employment with B in the relevant tax year were performed wholly outside the United Kingdom.^F1F7

(1A)But subsections (2) and (2A) do not apply if section 24A applies in relation to A's employment with B for the relevant tax year.^F1F8F9

(2)Except in a case within subsection (2A), A's employment income by virtue of section 554Z2(1), or the relevant part of it, is “taxable specific income” in a tax year so far as it is remitted to the United Kingdom in that year.^F1F10

(2A)Where the relevant step is within paragraph 1 of Schedule 11 to F(No. 2)A 2017, A's employment income by virtue of section 554Z2(1), or the relevant part of it, is “taxable specific income” in the tax year in which the relevant step is treated as being taken so far as the income is remitted to the United Kingdom in that tax year or in any previous tax year.^F1F11

(3)For the purposes of subsections (2) and (2A), any income which is remitted before A's employment with B starts is treated as being remitted in the tax year in which the employment starts.^F1F12

(b)the proportion of that income (or of so much of it as is attributable to the UK part of the relevant tax year, if it was a split year as respects A) which is general earnings to which section 22 applies or is employment income to which section 41A applies,^F1F16

(c)the nature of and time devoted to the duties performed outside the United Kingdom, and those performed in the United Kingdom, in the relevant tax year (or the UK part of it), and^F1F17

(d)all other relevant circumstances,^F1

and, if the amount of A's employment income to which subsection (2) or (2A) would otherwise apply exceeds that limit, the amount of A's employment income to which subsection (2) or (2A) (as the case may be) applies is instead to be such amount as is just and reasonable.
