statute of limitations is 7yrs on any civil suit, but you may well have already been away with this a long time ago 44k richer.

this 7 year limitation would apply to creditors you borrowed money from and anyone you crashed into for example and owed money to, or stole from etc etc....

for someone giving you money in error, im pretty sure the limitation is much MUCH shorter.

the 7 year thing isnt anything to do with how long you need to keep records for for tax either - thats just coincidence, for tax, you actualy only need records going back 5 years if all returns are correct and lodged on time, its only 7 years if thier not

Looks like its your shout!
