I sent copies to my accountant in the UK and to my local Inland Revenue office in Leicester. My accountant sent a copy to the residency office in Nottingham. My details on the HMR&C database were changed based on the FD9 form. I completed my last UK tax return, sent it in with a claim for tax paid 2007/8 but the Residency office in Nottingham say they haven't got the stamped FD9 form so until they get that I am still considered UK resident. They say a stamped copy of the Residencia certficate will suffice. Before I go chasing the local Hacienda office is there a procedure to follow here ? I live in Casares 29690 Malaga province.
