Scottish and English income taxes start to diverge

[AtW]

Is it where you live or where you work? I don't remember a "are you in Scotland" checkbox on the PAYE software.

Recently HMRC sent out bulletin regarding Scottish income tax coding - presumably it's HMRC who decides based on registered address or something...

yes it's HMRC who decides based on registered address from 6 April 2016 Scottish taxpayers code will start with an
S(S1100L) to show its at the Scottish tax rates,

so it based off where you live not where you work so Win for the English oil rigger that work in Scottish offshore lose for Scottish workers doing to same job in the same place getting paid the same as English co workers but are paying more tax that's the SNP fairer society way of thinking ??

English workers will be paying hefty workpermit fees, pass Gaelic language requirements ...
