Hi
I have messed up with unused tax relief on finance charges. Basically I have never carried forward any unused relief. However despite having not done this, from 17/18 to 20/21 it would not have altered the amount of tax I have to pay, due to the relief negating income tax owing and the adjusted total income figure always coming out the lowest regardless of whether the carried forward figure was applied or not. However in 21/22 this has changed and the finance cost with the carried forward from 20/21 has come out the lowest, not the adjusted total income.
I have read https://www.gov.uk/guidance/changes-to-tax-relief-for-residential-landlords-how-its-worked-out-including-case-studies but still unclear, and have some questions, and hoping it will help anyone else trying to calculate this....
1)I assume I do not have to resubmit these prior returns given it makes no difference to the amount of tax owed?
2)Can anyone confirm I am now on the right lines -see table below
3)I take it the carry forward figures goes into box 45?
4)I have remortgage costs from 20/21, I have included these in disallowed finance costs (survey and solicitor fess taken as expense in the year)
Many thanks for any help
