    not quite sure what you mean by 'pre-taxed' 

    UC and PIP are not taxable 

    https://www.gov.uk/income-tax/taxfree-and-taxable-state-benefits

    do you recieve any other payments  (income protection, interest from  investments etc  ) ?

    No, nothing at all only lower rate PIP , standard UC and occasional assistance with DHP from council, nothing for quite  a few months now. It takes ages to process, but DHP is not taxable as far as I can tell either.

    I may of confused people by saying "pre-taxed" when they are "not taxable" , sorry.

    Question is the extra information box remains blank in the pdfs, but is populated in the actual return if you amend it its showing.

    I am not convinced my letter arrived somehow, so I will write again next few days, the 'return' is done accurately to the best of my knowledge and I have screenshots of various bits etc.

    You could  wait weeks/months for a reply to a letter.

    Check your personal tax account online. It should show any correspondence received and awaiting action.

    I've had a look and nothing is showing so I'll write afresh.
    The page also says there's nothing for me to do anyway.
