Tax from Crowdfunding - kickstarter
Hi, Everyone! I have recently started a campaign on Kickstarter. Kickstarter is a crowdfunding platform where people help themselves, investing in various types of projects.

Non resident LANDLORD - taxation!
I am a landlord in UK with one property that I let. I am, in a couple of months, going to be moving to Sweden. Looking on web it seems very confusing!

100k taxable income - too late to reduce?
I suppose this is a silly question, exuse my tax illiteracy. I had a couple of pay raises this year and it took me a bit over 100k, plus it seems that multiple tax benefits adds up into a few thousand. I will watch it next year and thought of investing more in pension to stay below 100. The question is about this year, too…
