好奇出租房子不报税HMRC怎么知道的?

1,听说不少房东只收现金,这个好理解,HMRC不知道;
2,那些房租通过中介出租的,房租银行转账,中介会通知HMRC吧,通过中介HMRC知道出租房子是否交税了,这是主要渠道?

那怎么我知道的几个房东都通过中介出租几年了没有报税也没有事儿?是不是HMRC故意等多几年好收罚款啊? {:5_142:}

看过版面有的说HMRC对个人出租房子根本不查,或者查不过来;
也有的说他们会查的,而且好像有的人收到HMRC的信了要补交还有罚款的。

查council tax?

Landlords Beware: Five Ways HMRC Find Out About Undeclared Rental Income
https://taxhell.co.uk/how-do-hmrc-find-out-about-rental-income/

Agencies

Agencies are required by law to submit the details of landlords they work with and fees. If you get your tenants through an agency HMRC will know about it.

Deposits

Since 2007 rental deposits have had to be protected by an authorised deposit scheme. HMRC have access to this information.

Stamp duty

If you paid stamp duty land tax (STLT) when you bought the property HMRC will know about it.

Electoral register

HMRC use the electoral register to establish who is living at the address, so with the stamp duty information they can marry up a mismatch.

People grassing you up

HMRC take angry ex-partners, jealous friends and disgruntled tenants seriously – especially if they can come up with evidence.


HMRC has invested over £80 million into developing their Connect system, a powerful computer programme which has access to a range of databases containing personal and financial information. It can match these records to tax returns and identify discrepancies in seconds. Connect has access to more than 30 sources of data, including the Land Registry, and its power is increasing as it is set to access international records from 2017 onwards.

By accessing Land Registry databases and mortgage information, Connect can identify the price you paid for a property, link you to any properties you own and flag areas where tax is potentially owed. This could trigger an investigation, or a letter under the current Let Property Campaign.

我猜的那个通过中介出租的HMRC会知道排在第一位!

看来HMRC要么没去查,要么在故意放长线钓大鱼,等你时间长了罚个狠的! {:5_142:}

租金收入没达到一定金额是不需要报税的

我擦,中介报告hmrc?你当中介都是贱人哦?应该不是。hmrc肯定另有渠道

那就让hmrc把线放得再长一点,20年以后我都回国养老了,全部资产转走:lol

租金达到多少需要报税?跟自己原来的工资收入有关系吗

hmrc给中介发要求,中介必须告诉,晚一天罚款60。

一问就招,哪个中介会帮你顶雷?

没关系,报不报税跟工资没关系,交税的金额有关系

10年以前是规定中介替你报的,你收到的中介转账都是扣掉了一切的,除非你有exemption 的证明,这个也是自己向税务方面申请了拿给中介看一眼。
后来改成中介不报只监督了,如果没有salary income缴税,又有regular income进账的确实很扎眼。

成龙大哥,可不可以这么理解,如果用residential的贷款买的房子,然后只租给没有投票权利的海外学生,然后跟他们说好押金直接放淘宝,HMRC就没则了 {:5_129:}
