Hi there, I received an HMRC cheque for tax refund. How can I claim to receive the money by bank trasnfer? Thanks

Hi,

If you have received a cheque then your bank will be able to allocate this to your account as long as the cheque is not over 6 months old. If there is an issue and your bank cannot cash the cheque you would need to contact HMRC for options to reissue. 

Thank you.

It is already been quite several days but the cheque has not been received. May I know how can I track the dispatch or ways to contact HMRC as I stay abroad?

Hi Byakti,
It can take up to 3 weeks for the cheque to arrive and if going to an overseasv address it can take longer.
If this timescale passed you can contact HMRC from abroad on +44 135 535 9022 to review.

Hi, have got a cheque that is addressing me as Ms when I'm Mr. can i used it ? kindly advise

Hello, I received my tax refund cheque, but I missed the six-month deposit deadline at my bank. Can I arrange for a direct cash deposit into my bank account, or should I request a cheque renewal? How should I proceed to claim it? I’m living in Spain at the moment

Hi Jojo,
Depending on your bank, you may not be able to cash a cheque with an incorrect title.
To allow us to update your title and reissue your cheque, please contact us at:
Income Tax: general enquiries
Thank you. 

HMRC rules (SALF306) state that interest is payable on overpaid tax up until the date 'payment is made'. What is the correct interpretation of 'when payment is made'? Is it the date the cheque was issued, the date it was posted, or the date it was received? I have a large repayment due and a significant time has elapsed between when I was advised the payment was sent. I have still not received it. The interest due at the applicable rate for this time would be over £100.

Hi
If the cheque is now out of date you will need to contact HMRC to cancel and reissue.

Hello, I changed my name legally some time ago. HMRC sent me a cheque for tax credits under the old name, which I cannot cash. I'm registered on Gov.co.uk under the correct name, I receive benefits under the correct name etc. How do I go about having the cheque corrected and re-issued?

Hi 115804111053 Paterson

For the 22/23 year, interest will not be applied on any repayments until 1st February 2024.

Thank you
