I had a letter with the calculation and how much I was due it could be that? But my repayment is still pending too

Just called they kept on saying it's a busy period it doesn't seem there are any extra checks so need to wait.

No backlog for thise who have not been selected for a security check, They will go through automatically. So it won't be added to any queue, apart from the queue to  process the repayment.

Those selected for checks  do not process through to repayment but are added to a list for checking instead.
 Each case  must then be downloaded by an officer to be checked.
Once cleared it will passed to be repaid. 
  

So it depends on where you are in the queue how long it is until your return  is checked. 

If there are 2000 in front of you , you will wait longer than if you there 200 in front of you.

Why so many this year selected for checks, mine and everyone I know usually have no issue.

My only guess can be because of the furlough/grants this year. That’s the only thing that’s been different as Iv never had an issue before
