United Kingdom

I had some money in a UK bank savings a/c earning 5.85% interest and paying 20% tax.

I have just now used it to buy some shares in Lloyds bank, earning 6% dividend and paying 10% tax. There are also good prospects rising income and capital appreciation. Surely Lloyds bank is safe enough and I can sell the shares and get my money back in 3 days, whenever I want..

Was it not a brilliant idea? You can do it also as long as you drink a toast to my good health.

If a U.S.-based bank were to open an account for me, does anyone know how the interest would be reported? Does some type of internationl law require the bank to report the income to U.K. tax authorities?

I lived in the United Kingdom, but I work online and my work is in situated in Florida and I have a bank account opened in Florida, US. Where would my tax be claimed? In the United Kingdom because I live there or Florida because my work is situated there?

I know there is no income tax in Florida that is why I am asking.

Hi, i'm a registered childminder and as such I am self employed. Can anyone give me a rough idea of how much my tax bill for april 2008 will be if I earn £12,500 this year. My tax code says I can earn £5225 before tax and obviously there are various things I can take into account such as food, elec and gas. Any help would be appreciated as the guy at the IR who I spoke to was a waste of air!!
Cheers,

For some time now, I been getting e-mails asking me to help families get there money back after the death of the loved one. Isn't that embezlling. Now I'm winning all these lotteries, around 6 of them at the same time. They say my e-mail address came up with the numbers. Is all this legal? Would I be getting into something that illegal?

Do you think its fair to pay £75.61p A WEEK tax to the government. That £75.61 a week is made up of PAYE Tax and National Insurance.

Cause i think its daylight robbery.
