HMRC Repayment Pending

  • Hello, I am in the same situation.
    Filled on 6th requested on 8th and gone in Pending on 9th.
    I have waited until today but nothing.
    Today I called them and first been told that I should get it by Monday but after telling the lady that I know people who submitted after me and got their repayments she transferred me to another department.
    The other lady said it is going thru additional security checks and that I will receive it by 18 May if everything ok.
    I was surprised because in the last 4 years I went security checked 3 times. And they say only 1 in 10 gets thru the extra security checks.
    Now I do not understand what are this security checks? If they want to be sure it's me why don't they ask me to go to an HMRC office and show them my id and confirm it's me who requested the repayment. Why do they need almost 4 weeks to check me?
    Or this is about the figures I submitted and they are checking if I am not dodging tax?
    If anybody knows please advise.
    I know from previous years that these security checks usually take about 2-3 weeks and I could use the money asap.

    to those expecting letters mid may - what do you expect they'll say? since a few have mentioned that they'll write with a 'decision'? surely they have to issue your tax if you can prove it's owed to you?
