Tax refund and BR

youngbuck2

BR a few weeks ago. Received a letter today and a cheque for £145 due to a tax refund from last year pre my bankruptcy date.

I'm 99.9% sure the answer as to whether I keep this is no.

Does the OR get this?

Probably - declare it to the OR and see what happens - you don't happen to need something really basic at the moment like replacing a broken washing machine or anything do you....? if so, just ask - the worst the OR can say is no.

I had something similar from the Rates collection agency (N.I version of council tax)

Our rates account was in credit £147 from the rates year prior to BR. It took the OR office all of 30 seconds to tell me to forward them the cheque.

Check with the OR, but yes, that is theirs legally.
