in Cutting tax
I need to complete a self-assessment and I wondered how many years back I can offset losses against gains on shares / crypto.
Thanks for your help.

You do not have to report losses straight away - you can claim up to 4 years after the end of the tax year that you disposed of the asset.https://www.gov.uk/capital-gains-tax/losses
