Rental losses

Rental losses

Didn't find your answer?

A new client has failed to declare a source of rental income that commenced in 2006/07. My understanding is that 2006/07 is now out of time is this correct please?

The rental accounts show a loss in 2006/07 but profits in all later years. If 2006/07 is out of time, can the losses nevertheless be brought forward to be relieved in 2007/08 and 2008/09?

Yes

Although it is preferable to disclose the loss in a tax return for the year in which it arises, failure to do so does not prevent you claiming relief for the loss brought forward in a subsequent year.  The same applies to overlap relief and capital losses.
