Number of tax returns to secure mortgage

Are there companies who will providing lending with one year of tax return?

I secured a mortgage three years ago based on one years tax return

Does anyone know if this is still possible?

    There are lenders who will base affordability on one year's trading, accepting one year's accounts or one year's HMRC SA302.

    Most insist on two years.

    As you got a mortgage three years ago with one year, don't you now have four years? Lenders take only the latest two, averaged if the latest year is better than the year before.
