  • Wow 3 months! What happened did they send a letter to you? Or did it just go to issued on the system?
    I think I'm just going to sit and wait now because the call centre can't seem to help at all in regards to saying when the checks are over.
    Hope I don't have to wait that long

    Still pending, submitted on the 6th. Last time I had security checks I didn't receive payment till the end of September.

    Well it was in my bank first then changed a day later on the system. Then the usual letter a couple days later saying it was issued. It just baffles me what security checks actually are as this year I told them I would send all receipts ectr to bristol but all they said was it is not investigation just a check. Very confusing as to why it takes so long

    Th security check is to check that the repayment process is correct and the repayment is going to the correct person.

    It is not a check of your tax return information.

    The security checks will be queueing on line and dealt with in order so nobody can tell you when an individual one will go through. They can only guess based on the information available as to what date repayments are being issued.
