Claiming tax with P60, will it affect 10 yr long residency?

I am due to apply ILR in the mid 2011. I am trying to claim my tax with P60 (atleast 6 years P60). Still no idea how to claim, but having talks with consultants. If I get some tax back with that, will it affect my ILR application? Some people say that they check the NI, whether we claim the tax in 10 year period, but some say they check for last 1 year period only. If it doesn't affect ILR will it give any problem while applying nationality. I am not sure of these things. Experts advice me please.

If you over paid the tax and now claiming it back, i do not think any problem with that, as long as you are were allowed to do the kind of work you had done in your job and number of hours are according to your visa conditions.

OK, good reasons why you might be entitled to tax refunds.

You are not obliged to pay too much tax, and reclaiming the overpaid tax will not be held against you, as regards any visa applications.
