Can anyone confirm what the latest date a Self assessment tax return can be amended, for the YE 5 April 2003. I have a feeling its 5 years making it 31/1/09 but not too sure! :confused1:
Any comments greatfully received!

you are right there it is 5 years
Years when you didn't complete a tax return
If you think you've paid too much or too little tax in a year when you didn't complete a tax return, write to your Tax Office and tell them why. If you think you're owed a repayment and they agree, in most cases you can get a tax rebate as long as you claim it no later than five years after 31 January following the year for which you're making the claim.
For example, you would have until 31 January 2012 to make a claim for the year 2005-06.
If you owe more tax your Tax Office will work this out and ask you to make a payment. Depending on the circumstances, interest charges may apply.
Years when you did complete a tax return
If you completed a tax return for the year when you think you paid too much or too little tax you'll have to write and ask to claim 'error or mistake relief'. In most cases you can do this up to five years after 31 January following the year for which you're making the claim.
Bear in mind that in both circumstances we may examine all your tax affairs for that year - not just the subject of the claim.
A repayment for earlier year errors will be paid to you by cheque or bank transfer, or made through your Self Assessment Statement. But there may be a delay because we make thorough checks before sending out payments.
If you've paid too much tax because of a mistake made by us you can get extra time to claim.
If you owe more tax as a result of the error your Tax Office will work this out and ask you to make a payment. Depending on the circumstances, interest charges may apply.
