  1. Registered airmail can be tracked to the final destination. This is the tracking info for the PoL I submitted in 2023. First image shows Thai post tracking. The second image shows Royal Mail Tracking info which you can use once the item has arrived in the UK. As you can see it shows final destination of Wolverhampton and the initials of the person receiving the letter.
  2. I agree it has not been a mandatory requirement in the past and I have signed many PoLs. Previously on the PoL it said "place your stamp in the box if you have one" (my words) but this year, by signing the form, the witness certifies that they HAVE put their stamp in the box. I had gone to my mates house to sign his PoL but when I discussed it with him, he agreed that there was an element of risk (of the form being sent back) if I signed without a stamp. I said I would sign the form but I would either cross out the the bit saying I had put my stamp in the box or write on "I don't have a stamp". I'm not telling a lie on an official Govt form. We both ended up going to our local Doctor who did it for 200 baht.
  3. That is not the latest version; the current letters say:- "IF you have an official stamp for yourself or your company place it here". https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/67160776e94bb9726918ee90/Life_Certificate.pdf I got the same form as @Moonlover did which is why I could not sign my mates PoL. See attached image of witness declaration from the form I got on Jan 31st.
  4. That's what I did this year, also 200 baht.
  5. Check this link where you may be able to recover your sign-in credentials. https://www.gov.uk/log-in-register-hmrc-online-services/problems-signing-in
  6. Here is a link to create a UK Govt Gateway Account and register for UK Govt online services using a browser via PC/laptop. This is the website equivalent of the HMRC app. https://www.gov.uk/log-in-register-hmrc-online-services
  7. You are not wrong @hotandsticky. Electronic filing of DWP PoL form is still a distant fantasy.
  8. Thanks for your reply @billd766. So it is the HMRC app and not DWP. So no chance of a "paperless" proof of life form.
  9. @billd766 Can you elaborate on this statement please? Are "they" the DWP who have this new smartphone App, or are you referring to the existing HMRC App which has been out for ages?
  10. I've just enjoyed watching season 1 of The Loch. I came across it while browsing TGx.
  11. I like your approach to filing a return. I am not employed in Thailand. I live here on the basis of retirement. I will be filing my return in early March on a paper PND91 form. I'm using that rather than the PND90, because it is a simpler form and all my "income" will be entered under employment. My income consists of 3 pensions which are all remitted to Thailand each month. One is from my employment in UK local government, one is from private sector employment and the last is the state pension. I will not be including the Local Government pension on the form since it is non-taxable in Thailand (as defined in the UK/Thai DTA) and there are no provisions on the current forms to report such non-assessable income. The totals of my other two pensions will not exceed my TEDA + (first 150K @ 0% tax) total, so I shouldn't be paying any tax in TH. I do pay some UK tax on the private sector pension and normally I would be seeking a tax credit for that amount, but since I wont have to pay any Thai tax anyway, I'm not going to bother looking into that, just in case I over-complicate my situation. I will NOT be "volunteering" any supporting documents with my filing, as this again could IMHO make a "rod for my own back" by overloading the RD officer with potentially unwanted info.. Keep everything as simple as possible is my MO. I have kept good records for 2024 and IMHO I am confident I can survive an audit. I will have all the supporting docs with me when I file but will only present them if challenged.
  12. IMHO RFK Jr. is not qualified to be second in command of a <deleted> heap.
