Sirs,
Ref: Canada/U.K. Income Tax Convention
I have an income tax problem with the U.K. Inland Revenue which I hope you may be of assistance.
XXXX
As you are probably aware, the Canada/U.K. tax conventions were amended on 1st April 1966 whereby my pension would be taxed by the U.K. rather than by Canada.
I have just received my U.K. notice of assessment for income tax in which they have demanded taxes for 1985/86, the year prior to the aforementioned tax convention amendment. I have been credited for tax monies paid to Canada. The Inland Revenue office here in Gainsborough claims that I should have been subject to U.K. tax since my arrival in the U.K. I was under the impression that the Canada/U.K. tax convention allowed for only one of the countries to claim a tax.
I would appreciate a clarification from your office on this matter.
Sincerely yours,
XXXX
