Statutory Residence Test Postponed. The Government has issued the draft Finance Bill today with a number of other documents and announcements.
The Government has issued the draft Finance Bill today with a number of other documents and announcements. A key – and somewhat disappointing announcement is that the new statutory residence test will not now come in to force until 2013/14 – a year later than we had hoped.
The simplifications and changes to encourage non doms to invest in the UK will be enacted for 2012/13 as planned. We will be reviewing all the proposals over the next few days and will issue updated information as soon as possible.
If you have any questions in the meantime please don’t hesitate to contact us.
