Open / closed years

[TopBanana]

I used a scheme for a few years before 2010. I received a letter back in 2008 that my 2007 return was being looked into. I haven't received anything since then. For the purposes of my calculations, should I therefore assume that 2007 is still 'open' and all others are 'closed', being out of time as they are? Can a year stay open indefinitely?

I would ask the IR, but I'd rather not put my head above the parapet any more than I have to, since it's been silence since then.

Thanks

Yep, your assumptions are probably correct.

However if the scheme you used involved loans you might still be in for a nasty surprise:
