Two choices;-
- do as they ask
- go elsewhere.
They have a concern about your income somewhere along the line. If they've had payslips, P60s covering several years and an employer's reference and now require HMRC verification they doubt the authenticity of the documentation you've provided.
Is the documentation hand-written or non-standard in some way?I am a mortgage broker. You should note that this site doesn't check my status as a Mortgage Adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

A credit check and one payslip were all ING asked from me. I think if Halifax are being that difficult they probably dont want to lend in the end.0
