I recieved a refund check but my swiss bank doesn't accept it. Which other alternative do I have to get this money back? Can I send to someone my bank details and get the money there? Thanks

Hi krojas,
You can provide UK bank details to have the payment sent.
If you don't have a UK bank account, you can nominate someone in the UK to receive it on your behalf.
Thank you.

I also received a refund check (July 2024) that my NZ bank won't accept. How do I get a direct transfer or get the money in some other way? I do not know anyone in the UK who could receive the money. I have searched the HMRC site to see if I can change the payment method but can find no way to do this. Attempting to contact by phone from NZ (overnight here) has proved totally impossible.

Hi I plan to arrive in the UK in end Sep for a new Employer. Being a non resident in the current Tax year 2024 my Employer mentioned my Tax code 1257L and suggested me to reach out to HMRC for Tax refund If being a non resident in the current tax year. Kindly advise how do I claim the Income Tax relief from HMRC ? Basis https://www.gov.uk/claim-tax-refund/y/pay-from-a-job/on-or-after-6-april-2024/current-job It states the following - " If you’re due a refund and your tax code has been corrected, your employer will give you a refund in your pay. You should get the refund in your next pay once HMRC has sent your employer your new tax code." May I confirm the only channel is to access my personal Tax account online / the HMRC App to update the Tax code alongside employment details then HMRC will inform the Employer for the current Tax year relief ? Regards John.

Hi Segy,
Unfortunately due to security, HMRC Bank transfers can only be sent to UK bank accounts.  
If you would prefer not to contact our Income Tax team by phone you can contact us by webchat or post, via:
