British Expatriate Network

I recently arrived in the US in June, and so got the Inland Revenue to send me a tax rebate for earnings from April to June 2003, which they did. Hoorah.

Now though, they have sent me a self assessment form for the 2002-2003 tax year. Did anyone else ever have to do this?

My Wife, who is American, always had to fill in a IRS tax return while we lived in the UK, even though she wasn't earning any US dollas. Will I have to do the same for the Inland Revenue, even though I no longer make any UK pounds?

Thanks for the help.

We have filled them in every year since moving here. They are very easy and only costs you the price of a stamp to do it. We had no income coming from the UK either. We just wanted to keep the doors open in the UK incase we went back. )
