Checking overpaid student loan repayments

Hi, I am sure that I am due refunds for over paying student loan repayments in several years between 2002 and 2020. I have had an erratic working life sometimes in full time work, sometimes part-time, on benefits, in short contracted or agency work etc etc. I only found out through MSE that if your final overall annual income was below the threshold you are entitled to claim back any monthly loan repayments that were made in that year. It is a nightmare finding any tax records to verify what my earnings actually were for each year but I know that I rarely had an annual salary above the threshold but did sometimes have monthly income that caused a student payment to be taken. Does anyone have any advice on how I can get my end of year tax records going back so far so that I can calculate each year and see if I should request any refunds?

Making a Data Subject Access Request to HMRC using the form below will give you what you need. The repayment threshold was £10,000 up to April 2005, then £15,000 up to April 2012 and has increased each year since.
