You may spend no more than 89 days a year in the UK to retain non-resident status.

Once you are non-resident you should be able to send money back to the UK without a tax liability.

Please feel free to ask any other questions & I'll help.

I left the UK to work in Dubai on the 9th April and issued a P85 to this affect. If i return to the UK one year later what would my tax liability be?
