Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the answer of 23 June to Question 61021 on Taxation: Domicil, how many P85 forms have been submitted in each month in the last five years.

The table below shows the number of P85 forms submitted to HMRC electronically each month between May 2020 and May 2025.

P85 forms are submitted by taxpayers who are not intending to submit a self-assessment tax return. Individuals who file through Self-Assessment (e.g. those with other sources of income such as self-employment or those claiming non-domiciled status) do not need to submit a P85 form.

Counts of submitted P85 forms in March 2024 and September 2024 are labelled as [x] due to incomplete data.

Individuals can either use the online system to submit a P85 iForm or fill in a paper form and submit it by post. Postal form data for the last five years is not available. The data provided in the table above contains only customers who have submitted iForms.
