If I sell share of inherited house in the USA to sister the gain will be around 50,000 dollars. If I am classed a UK resident, this will go on the 2018/19 tax year as it will happen soon. What is the rate of tax for that?
If I sell the house and stay in the USA and meet the statuatory residency test and am NON resident in the UK, I will pay on my 2018 return in the USA and dont report it to UK.
What happens if I move back halfway through the year!?
