Time limit for CGT loss claim

[Slim]

Hi. I have losses on bank shares sold approx 8 years ago and a substantial loss on a rental property incurred in 2018.

I have just completed my 2022 return. Should I amend that return for the rental property loss or can I still include both losses above in my 2023 return? Thanks.

You should have declared the losses when they occurred

You cannot declare a loss made in 2018 on your 2022 return and it is too late to amend the 2018 return or indeed the 2014 or 2015 return

Just make sure to keep a record of the losses so that you can justify their use when you need to claim them

Ok, thanks. Probably academic anyway.
