    Hello sir,
    in the study text of tx21
    topic of trading losses for individuals,
    the terminal loss relief;
    the text had the following written:

    the relief to is to set the terminal loss against trading profit of the last tax year (if any) and then carry back three tax years on a LIFO basis.

    Does this mean under the terminal loss relief, the relief can be claimed up to 4 years back in total? or have i understood it wrong?

    kind regards
    sukaina.

    Once again I emphasise the importance of working through the lectures and study notes, but in relation to what you are asking the actual CARRY BACK period is the 3 years prior to the final tax year but if there was a trading profit assessment in the final tax year (extremely unlikely) the relief would be applied firstly in that tax year before then carrying back to the preceding 3 tax years
