VISITORS TO ENGLAND AND INCOME TAX
Sir. — In consequence of a legal decision there has been a complete change in the basis of liability lo English income tax in the case of visitors. It is fairly well known that a visit of more than 182 days in a financial year involves liability and in order to avoid this liability it has become the practice for funds to be remitted for living expenses in the year prior to that in which the visit is made. The decision referred to above completely alters the position and readers making arrangements for long leave in England or for return there on retirement are advised most strongly to obtain reliable advice as to the present tax position. The old methods of minimising liability are not only useless in most cases, but may now have the opposite effect to that intended.—l am, etc., WILFRED T. FRY. 13 Buckingham Palace Gardens, London, S.W.I.
