HMRC expired cheque question

It's another avenue to pursue. MPs interventions carry more weight than those of a unsatisfied taxpayer. And it would be fair if the system worked both ways, whether that is that both HMRC and the taxpayer can only go back 6 years or that both sides can go back an indefinite period. If that isn't the way it works at the moment, MPs would need to be involved to bring about that change.

Yes. I over simplified it. In fairness my CA training is very rusty.

It's easy to contact your MP - just drop them an email. Worst case they will do nothing for you but it's their job to represent their constituents in dealings with Government bodies, and they have more powers and influence to get things moving.
Your case seems clear - if you owed HMRC money, there would be no time barring. So why should there be time barring if HMRC owe you money.1
