RE: Check ISA9 Jan 2022 14:01
my understanding is any payment of a divi will incur tax as soon as it hits your trading account, even if it's cash held within the trading account, as it's immediately a gain, unless it's held in an stocks and shares ISA account, which will be exempt for tax purposes, but I am not a tax advisor, so seek your own advice or read the HM website which I've provided the link to below, but it's not when it hits your bank account, it's as soon as it hits your trading account! Also, many peeps seem to be unaware of the rules regarding matching shares like for like when doing your tax assessment, my understanding is you have to match the shares up, buys with sells and vice versa, you can't just simply add and subtract on the shares you've traded in one tax year, if you bought shares in the previous tax year or a few tax years ago, you have to match them up. This is why it's so complex! IMO of course, and seek your own financial advice.
