  1. OK, so it's not education, but I thought those of you who know would be here!

    How do I go about claiming the allowance as a resident here?

    I think that I know where to go (some distance away) but I would like to turn up with all the right papers.

    Is there anything I can do online?

     

    Any help very much appreciated,

  2. Thanks for all the advice. So, if I sell my UK house before 2007 I will, probably, have to pay no tax either in France or the UK, but after that date I will have to pay tax on the profit? Is that the difference in price between what I bought it for and the price I sell it for, or the profit I made after vacating the house? Do you know what the tax is , or is it some horribly complicated calculation (I somehow imagine that it's the latter!).
  3. Thanks Will for you reply.

    I am currently renting out the house and as I think you say, if  i sell it within three years you I am exempt and  (I was told) after 5 years, due to another some other law.

    My problem has been to locate a specialist who can give me details of the French position if I can avoid paying tax in the UK. My solicitor who deals only with french matters didn't know.

     

     

  4. Forgive me if this questiion has been asked a hunderd times before, but this is my first time on the site.

    My question is, does any one know the situation in respect of selling a house in the UK after one has bought a place in France (to live and work) in terms of tax ?

    The inland revenue said there were certain time limits one had to bare in mind that could ease the issue of tax. I don't know if I am liable and if so what I would pay tax on (the profit, the part minus the mortgage etc).

     

    Any guidence would be gratefully recieved,
