The Connexion has just launched its 2022 Tax Guide, which I’ve been waiting for for a couple of weeks. Some SF posters seem overly critical of it, but I think for many retirees it’s a cheap and efficient alternative to an accountant (pax Tech Guru!).
However a caveat, because at the moment it’s only available online or as a PDF and I prefer to carefully read the hard copy, highlighting relevant sections as I go along. There are so many studies proving that reading of online material is less precise than reading printed info.
There’s eighty odd pages and extensive use of colour, so a b/w laser printed version would be unpleasant to read. Despite my previous reservations, I’ve already gone though the PDF, highlighting everything that’s relevant to our declaration and am now waiting for the forms to be issued.
Nevertheless I don’t understand why in the UK, you have nine months in which to submit your tax return, whereas in many départements, it’s about four or five weeks.
Why not contact Connexion and ask them directly ?
I’ve no idea what the Connexion publication is like ie how it identifies things on the Official Declaration…
Now in 2025 we’re declaring for Worldwide Income received in 2024 and I believe Connexion issues its Guide each year to include any/all official changes.
Hopefully, you won’t have wasted your money
