Hello, After applying for my P800, I recently received notification that I'll be receiving my refund, but it's concerning as HMRC supposedly sent it by post, which I find challenging to receive in my country. Today, I called to inquire why I can't receive the amount directly into my UK bank account instead of a check, which seems unlikely to reach me. My request was based on the positive experiences of other customers who made similar requests and HMRC’s portal. So, why can't I be assisted similarly, especially since I'm overseas, and receiving the amount in my UK bank account would be more convenient? I need assistance.

Hi Alexandra,

You would need to contact our Income Tax team to see if the repayment can be made to your UK bank account.

Hello, I need help with a cheque nominee set up. I left the UK and got a communication on the HMRC app that a tax rebate cheque has been issued to my new Spanish address on 12 Feb 2024. The cheque never arrived. I have been calling HMRC for nearly 2 weeks but I cannot get through, at first I waited for hours without getting to an agent, and now lines are closed. I need help to set up a UK nominee to receive the cheque on my behalf. I submitted a complaint hoping to get your attention, support and a resolution. HMRC customers should not have to do that to get help. Looking forward to getting a response and help here.

Hi,

You will need to write to us, please include your National Insurance number, your name and your address. You need to include your signature, the date and include the repayment amount and the year the repayment is for. You will need to include the name and address of the nominee to receive the replacement repayment.
The address to send the letter to is:

Pay As You Earn and Self Assessment,
HM Revenue and Customs

United Kingdom

The address, if originating from outside the UK is:

HM Revenue & Customs
Benton Park View
Newcastle Upon Tyne

Hi pratiik,
You can request your cheque be reissued to a nominee with a UK bank account. The cheque would come in their name, but it would have no tax implications. To allow us to reissue your cheque, contact us by webchat, phone or post, via Income Tax: general enquiries.
