π When Automatic Doesn’t Apply: If these tests aren’t your guide, don’t fret. Statutory UK Residency Tests await:
183 days in the tax year
30 days with a UK home
Working full-time in the UK for part of the year
π Ties that Bind: Now, let’s talk ties β the strings that connect individuals to the UK:
Family (UK resident spouse or kids under 18)
Accommodation (utilizing a UK home for 91 consecutive days)
