Accessing previous fillings done through HMRC?

Posted by Andrew Baynham 28 Jun 2026 at 13:10
Is there anyway to access previous accounts filed with HMRC through tinytax?
Google search is saying there is a "fetch" button to import previous years from HMRC but I'm unable to find it.

Thanks.

TinyTax doesn't store or display previous filings made directly through HMRC or other software — only filings submitted through TinyTax are visible in your dashboard.

The "fetch" you read about online is a different feature: when you start a new set of accounts in TinyTax, it automatically tries to pull your prior year balance sheet figures from Companies House (the comparative column). It's not about viewing old filings — it's a convenience feature to save you re-entering last year's balance sheet numbers when preparing this year's accounts.

**To view your previous filing history:**

- **CT600 returns:** log into your HMRC Business Tax Account at https://www.gov.uk/business-tax-account — your filing history is listed there under Corporation Tax.
- **Annual accounts:** previously filed accounts are publicly available at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk — search by your company number to download them.

**Starting a new filing:** if your company has previously filed through another route, you can still use TinyTax for future filings. When you start a new set of accounts, TinyTax will attempt to auto-fetch your prior year balance sheet figures from Companies House. If it can't retrieve them automatically (e.g. previous accounts weren't in iXBRL format), you'll be prompted to enter the prior year figures manually from your previous accounts document.
