OH has recently taken up a part time post in NI but lives in the south.
I understand that she will have to do a self assessment return to the Revenue here each year. She will be PAYE in NI.
I am curious as to how, in this situation, it would be best to use my/her tax credits.
Since we were married, I am assuming I am taxed as a married person. (she hasnt worked since we were married)
If she was working in the south with a small salary, I believe that some of her tax credits could be used against my slary (I'm also PAYE, high rate)
However, can this be done in our situation? i.e., can her credits be used by me?
