Thank you so much...that makes it clearer. My last question. ( i promise) 2022 had a loss which we received refund from previous years tax paid on 2021 profit made & the whole loss was used to offset, 2023 had a loss so i have to carry forward ? if so which box do i complete? 2024 has a loss too, Do I add that to the previous years loss or only put the figure of loss for the year relating to the return ? So. ...do hmrc have a tally of the losses or do i have to do some sort of report ? I have tried to understand the guide but i am confused Thanks in advance :)

Thank you so much for your answer.
I have accessed the CT600 & see that in 20/22 we made a loss and claimed back the maximum tax on that loss so we had no unused losses to carry forward
One more question please. The company made a loss in 22/23.
I have entered the loss in box 780 on CT600
Do I need to work out the corporation tax on that and insert it in the Repayments section (865) on CT600 or will HMRC automaticall y work out if we have any refund due from previously paid tax. NB To my calculation we have about 3K paid since incorporation that has not been refunded.
Thanks in advance

My accountant has retired and i am now doing our company accounts. My question is how do i find out the figure for any unused trading losses from previous years ?
NB we had trading loss in 2022 we received a tax refund in 2023.
also where do i use these ( if there are losses c/f) on the CT return when 2023 is also a loss figure on profit
Thanks in advance
