Hi there!
My husband and i moved to the UK last July, 2011. Both he and i worked in the US prior to our move, and have worked in the UK since our move (through the remainder of 2011). I'm curious, and have looked in this forum but haven't been able to find a quick answer - do we have to declare and pay tax on the income we made here in the UK?
It seems odd to have to declare that income when we are paying UK taxes for it, but after looking into doing our taxes, it seems that perhaps we do?
If anyone has any advice, or can point me in the direction of a thread (i'm sure this topic has been covered before, but can't seem to find it easily!!) that would be super appreciated!!
This is a first for me, and i'm already a bit overwhelmed - thought it would be as easy as filing as though we were still living in the US, but alas... it's not!
thanks all!
cheers,
