in Cutting tax
I am filing tax return for 2018-19. I need help in answering this question:
Have you had any 2018-19 Income Tax refunded or off-set by us or JobCentre Plus?
My situation is, I work for UK public sector. I had been subscribing to professional journals and memberships that were eligible for tax exemptions/benefits. I was not aware of this and I requested HMRC and they gave me refunds for past several years. The refunds came in parts and as multiple cheques. I don't remember of having deposited all into the same bank account. I may not find all the letters in my files. Hence, I am not sure if i can find out the exact amount I have got back as refund by going through the letters I have and by looking at bank statements. I am worried if I will miss any of them then I will be giving incorrect info to HMRC.
I also may have refund of tax adjustments that HMRC sends me once every year (I am not able to find this letter in my files though).
My question is:
1. Do I answer yes to above question?
2. If I say yes, I will be asked to provide the exact amount. And do I have to include (add) both?:
Many thanks in advance for your help.

What has what happened for previous income tax years prior to 2018:19 got to do with this question?
What happened with any claim you made for "professional journals and memberships" costs relating to 2018:19?0 -
