HMRC Repayment Pending

Steph1888

Just out of curiosity Mickthechip80, did your tax return go to the Swindon department? I think I'm in the same situation as yourself. I also did my SA on the 6th of April, went for a review in edinburgh then from there to Swindon. I haven't received a letter though, however hmrc told me when I telephoned them in April I would hear from them by the 15th of June.

I'm not sure just spoke to an advisor who said letter on its way i had been told 100 different things before that though all my paperwork has to be in by the 21st of june.

Hmrc are a joke been waiting since the 6th April been through checks etc spoke to them last week and they said yes it's ready to be paid all we need is your bank details so it should only take 3/5 working days nothing yet. Spoke them them again on Tuesday and they said yes it's getting issued tonight (Tuesday) but when I log in it's still saying payment depending ����

Has this happen to anyone else?? Filed on 7th April kept on saying I was in credit x amount. Everything 48 hours and still the same! It went through checks got past off last week so they ask for my bank details the day after it went to bank Repment depending. Just spoke to them again now and it gone to checks again and have to phone back 7th off July that will be 14weeks what a joke and so stressing as they are quicker enough to take it off you. Does anyone know how long it may take now thanks

Hi I'm new to this forum but have been looking at this thread throughout, I have submitted my return and it went from bank repayment pending with 'pending' in the date to bank repayment and '14th July 2017' in the date section. Does this mean it has been issued and that it will be a case of waiting for it to go in to bank or does it mean it is still having security checks? Any information would be amazing
Thanks

I have been waiting three weeks now...rang them today, but a man told me that HMRC were entitled to hold on to the money for 12 months. Helpful !! Anyone know the average waiting time for 2017 ? Also, I accidentally gave a wrong figure last year, which was quickly remedied and my refund was then issued. Will they be more stringent the next year, to double check my refund ? It should all be in order, but I wondered if it would be protocol.

helped do my brother in laws form last weekend and he has received it all today.

What was the outcome ... have you had your refund issued yet ?!

I submitted my self-assessment on the 2nd August and got a very healthy payment into my account on the 8th! HMRC letter advising of repayment was posted on 4th and arrived today 11th. I can't fault the service!

Only downside is that I am due another similar payment for this tax year but won't be able to complete the SA form till this time next year.
