Whether or not you can take tax relief on bad debt will depend on how you have accounted for your income in your before time' tax gain. If you included the amount due from the buyer in your last time gain as income, it will be possible that you can take it in the next time gain as deductible. If you harbor't recorded the debt as income, then no deduction can be takeed.

Again if you overlook the bad debt in the year that it becomes worthless and don't take tax relief, this is not the end of the world. For worthless bad debt, you can record a take for a deduction for up to seven time after the year of an previous tax gain, to record an amended tax gain.
