claiming profits back on a CT600 from previous yea

Didn't find your answer?

I have a client who has made a loss this year. But has made a profit previous years and paid corporation tax in previous years. I know it is possible to claim the corporation tax back for the element of the loss. But which box do I use on the CT600 to claim the loss back.

Blimey. First you want to "claim profits back", then you want a box on the form to "claim the loss back". A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

Either:

a) you are very clever and are aware that generally freeloaders do not get a good response on this site.

or

b) you are an agent with very limited knowledge.

This is not a difficult question and is surely very easy to find the relevant box on the CT600?

You missed out at least two other possibilities:

c. My question is research (honest, guv)

d. I posted my question to gauge responses to assist me in finding an accountant on here. You could have all earned £xxxx from me in fees but now a curse on all your houses.

However look on things in a positive manner, the fact that this is a fairly simple question yet is asked reinforces the point that accountants, representing the SME market, will never go hungry.

Options (c) and (d) don't look likely - 'Roxy''s previous questions all suggest he / she actually is an accountant in practice.

I took Roxy to be a very inexperienced newbie but now seen her response to another question which sheds more light
