The Russians here are very mixed. I've even asked Russians and can't get a clear answer as to the percentage here fleeing Putin vs. the usual Z fascist Siberian holiday makers. I wouldn't bother with shouting Slava Ukraini here though but for a while I was looking for a shirt showing Ukrainian colors. Actually illegal to wear in Russia. -

Do you choose where things go in your house?
After 18 yrs together, and 3rd house, we kind of got it sorted out. She dominated the bathroom of course, as I get a spot for razor, toothbrush & soap. She has 3 different soaps, couple rubs, and 3-5 bottles of other crap. Don't have a living room or dining room. I dominate the foyer/entrance. Drone & RC cabinet (tall & large), w/2 vid drones now dominate the low cabinet that was photos & collectibles. With me other junks scattered about. There's a hand off order for all of that. She has multipurpose desk in bedroom, and I get 1/3 of the walled in closet I have to share my 1/2 of the bed, with the dog She has large area of eat in kitchen (main room of house) for her sewing. Along with full control of laundry & storage, which runs the length of one side of the house. Which means I haven't a clue where anything is, that I haven't used in the last month. We both get to clutter up the carport, me with EVs, her with gardening supplies. Also the garden lot & Greenhouse is all hers. So I basically got 1/2 the bedroom, and shared kitchen access. Call that 50 - 75 m² of the 800 m², of the 1/2 rai it all occupies. Sadly, neither on of us seem to be in control, as we serve the dog, master of the house -

Just because you are taxed in the UK, on income derived from the UK, doesn't necessarily mean that you are a UK tax resident. Whether you are resident in the UK for tax purposes is determined by the Statutory Residence Test (in force since April 2013). At its most simple, if you spend 183 or more days in the UK during a tax year (6 April – 5 April) you will automatically be UK resident. If you have not been in the UK for 183 days, you will still be UK resident for a tax year if: You do not meet any of the automatic overseas tests; You meet one of the automatic UK tests or you meet the sufficient ties test. Automatic overseas tests The three main automatic overseas tests are as follows: You will be non-UK resident for the tax year if you were UK resident for one or more of the previous three tax years and you spend less than 16 days in the UK in the current year. You will be non-UK resident for the tax year if you were UK resident for none of the previous three tax years and spend less than 46 days in the UK in the current year. You will be non-UK resident for the tax year if you work full-time overseas in the tax year. If any of the above tests are satisfied, you will not be UK resident for that tax year. If they are not satisfied, the automatic UK tests and sufficient ties tests need to be considered. Automatic UK tests The three main automatic UK tests are as follows: As noted, you will be UK resident if you spend 183 or more days in the UK in the tax year. You will be UK resident if, for a prescribed part of the tax year, your only home is in the UK. You will be UK resident if you work full time in the UK in the tax year. If you meet none of the automatic overseas tests, and none of the automatic UK tests, then the sufficient ties test comes into play. Sufficient ties test There are five UK ties, these being as follows: Family tie – your spouse, cohabitee or minor child is UK resident in the tax year. Accommodation tie – you have a place to live in the UK available to you in the tax year. Work tie – you work for more than three hours a day for 40 days or more in the tax year. 90 day tie – you have spent more than 90 days in the UK in at least one of the previous two tax years. Country tie – you spend more days in the UK in a tax year than in any other country (but this only applies if you were UK resident in one of the previous three tax years). The ties have many accompanying tests and rules that need to be worked through carefully according to your individual circumstances each year. The number of ties that you meet, will determine the number of days you can spend in the UK in a tax year on a tiered basis before you become a UK resident. For the sufficient ties test, a distinction is drawn between “arrivers” (individuals who have not been UK resident in any of the previous three tax years) and “leavers” (who have been UK resident in one or more of the previous three tax years).
