IF the new 90 day rule becomes law, we shall be deemed “resident” for taxation purposes if we spend more than the said 90 days. We need days of arrival and departure in UK to remain excluded as is the case now. I pay income tax on my worldwide income to the government of the community where I live, where my family live, where my children are educated, where my elderly relatives receive hospital treatment etc. (IOM) If these new rules come into force, my local community will lose out. That’s not what I call “paying a fairer share!” If this affects you, please take a look here:
