    Having worked overseas for 40+ years, I always regarded the accountants fees as money well spent.

    What seems strange to me is.......Why do you have to prove you don't also have overseas income, surely they would have to prove otherwise to dispute that.
    A letter stating " No overseas income" should be sufficent, which would then require HMRC to agree or prove otherwise.
    With regards to having an accountant, £300 seems a very expensive letter, on your behalf.
    You mentioned a UK home, if you have retained a UK residence, maybe that is the reason they are pursuing another questionable income.
    Is the Isle of Mann investment classed as a tax-free investment?

    Just a thought.
