Why I am getting a message regarding unallocated finance costs brought forward ?
If you have several instances of foreign property income for which there are previous unused finance costs, you may have to manually enter the brought forward finance costs for those properties.
You will receive the following TaxCalc message:

However, £x remains unallocated. Please enter this amount into the Unused residential finance costs box on the property page/s it relates to.
