Hi, I found out today that a company benefit for "Accommodation" of £195 has been included on my tax retrun for the past few years, even though I havent received any such benefit since Jan 29th 2019. This relates to a shared equity scheme, where my employer owned co-purchased the house to facilitate relocation. I sold the home on this date and have not received any such benefit since. I have now corrected the error and not sure why I didn't spot it sooner on my self assessment to be honest - entrely my fault. My question is whether I can claim the overpayment back - this should be 4 years and 2 months where I didn't have this benefit but it was included on my tax return. Many thanks Ian

Hi

You will need to amend the Self Assessment tax return for the previous tax years. HMRC can review the previous 4 tax years.
Details of how to amend your tax retrun at Self Assessment tax returns

Thank you
