Payslips

[Caran]

How long should I keep pay slips and bank statements for. Currently have 5 years piled up in a file. Have been retired for 7 years now so is there any need to keep this amount?

If my memory serves me right 6 years is the limit for anyone to claim against you for any money so I always keep mine 6 but hang on to all my P60;s as not sure about the taxman

[Caran]

thanks Ubasses looks like I'd better hang on to them for a while yet.

would scanning them into your comp and saving them there be an option? or would there be doubt as to if theyd been altered?

[ummmm]

You've been retired for 7 years....shred the lot.

[boxtops]

Umm's right, I'd keep the P60s.
