    No disrespect but I think these people on the phone just say what they feel 

    I phoned on Wednesday, the lad told me I should have it by May 28th

    thursday I spoke to someone to double check, she said I’ll have to wait 4-6 weeks, she said it could be sooner that’s just the guideline they have to give, 2 different things in 2 days 😞
    I wouldn't stress yourself out by keep calling. I have read quite a lot into our situation of Repayment pending and it seems the people on the phones have zero information as this is in the interests of security. Everything is handled by another department.

    To be honest, you are probably better off checking what it says on  https://www.gov.uk/guidance/check-when-you-can-expect-a-reply-from-hmrc which I think is updated weekly.

    I appreciate you are waiting for tax refunds and want the money asap but calling them means that others who still have tax questions needed to file their returns and am sure they would appreciate this given how difficult it can be to get i touch with HMRC as it is.

    When it states claim. Is this the initial tax return date or request for payment date, Thank you.

    Same. Hopefully next week. 
    I really hope so. Feels like it's been forever. Longest I ever waited was the 4th May. 
    Last year was 7 weeks. Year before was 6 months as I received a surf letter. 
    Surf1 or surf2. Did they want all bank statements etc
    Csnt remember which one. I had to send in proof of ID, proof of address, copy of a P60, and proof of banking. 
    And also receipts of expenses etc
    That's crazy. I'm guessing we are all awaiting such letters. 
    If it goes past 6 weeks then it could happen. I'm content to wait until end of May before pestering HMRC. 
    What will that achieve? Once again - the call handler has NO idea when your return will be processed, what checks it has gone for, whether or when letters will be issued or if and when a repayment will be issued. 

    Some people on this forum either worked are still work for HMRC and are constrained by what they say. 

    Telephoning will result in you being told to wait another 4, 5, 6 weeks or whatever number the handler has been told to tell you. 
    Can actually achieve alot if you ask the correct questions. Asking where is my tax refund can give the generic answer. But asking are there any issues or blockers can get it looked into further and a better answer given. Exactly what I did 2 years ago to get the refund from being stuck in the system. I'm in no rush to recieve the refund. I just like to update that its still being processed and not stuck.

    A few people have mentioned it on here before.

    In most cases it has no impact and doesn't change anything when it comes to Self Assessment.
