Mine has gone to security checks. Has this happened with anyone else before who might know how long it takes? 

How do you know its gone for security checks may I ask? I've ever only had pending and then issued 

I had security checks last year got the money in September

What did you have to provide with? So much for the 6 weeks and it’s done.

Payslips, bank statements, proof of company's worked for and some general id they say its more of an id check rather then security check

So did you wait 6 weeks then get asked for all this information? Was it from a surf letter?

Yes from a surf letter which if you look it up online it tells you exactly what you need to send them so can get prepped just incase save some time hope this helps

Brilliant thank you.

So I was told yesterday that my repayment had gone for security checks. However I spoke with the online people today and they said they can see no evidence of it going for checks as there would be a note on the account and there are none? 

Has anyone worked for HMRC and know anything about this? He also said as I’m still in the ten day window it wouldn’t have gone to checks yet anyway. I’m so confused!

Perhaps you need to be a little more patient? You spoke with them yesterday and contacted online today? 

HMRC is very stretched at the best of times - repeated contacts only adds to delays.

I’m sorry I fully appreciate this. I just panicked when it said security checks as my wife lost her job recently and we have four kids and have been relying on this payment coming to get the car fixed. Just been a rough few months and I’m quite an anxious person. 

I’m just so worried about whether we will be able to get the car fixed and on another forum someone said they had been given wrong info so I thought I would check. 

I guess I will know more next week. Thanks for replying.

Not at all. Try not to stress. Much of the ‘information’ on this thread is speculation - not always helpful!
