Title: TAXING QUESTION.
Post by: geefree on January 03, 2012, 10:55:03 pm

Hi,

How long do you keep your receipts dont mind,.. but i have a few years saved now.,  in case the tax man ever needs them,

but surely there must be a cut off point , before my office becomes over-run with books and reciepts.

cheers.

I think HMRC quote 6 years + current year, so suppose that's 7 years.
