first time self assessment

I went self employed last year and have completed my self assessment online for tax year ending April 2023. I have been awarded a refund and my question is when should I expect payment to reach me? I have looked around my account and the only date I could find is 31 Jan 2024. Im assuming this is just a standard as it’s the self assessment return deadline date.

Hi,

If you have requested the repayment, it will be issued within 10 working days unless it has been selected for additional security checks. If it is stopped for additional checks we aim to clear those within 6 weeks where possible.

Thank you.
