Tax Rebate after a death

xxx2010

Hi all,

A member of my family passed away and we have recently found out that he is owed tax rebates for the years 2007/2008, 2008/2009, 2009/2010, 2010/2011, 2011/2012.

Thus 5 years altogether and each statement lists a pound amount owed for that year, does anyone know; will the final total be each of the 5 years added together OR will the tax owed just have accumulated over the years so the final amount 2011/2012 be the one amount owed?

Thanks to anyone that can shed light!

You can, but for only the last 4 tax years, I assume only the executor of the will can do it.
