Hi I would like to request for Income Tax Refund. It is because my employer overpaid my income tax(PAYE). For the refund, as I know it can be a cheque or a bank tranfer to my bank account. When HMRC process the refund. The payee name is based on the "Income Tax Refund form's name" or my government gateway profile name? It is because bank will reject either the cheque and bank transfer if name is not match. Thanks

Hi When I login in to my “Personal Tax Account” (HMRC Govenment Gateway). The name showed in "Your Profile" is my full name or a alias name? And where can I check my full name? Thanks

Hi, The name present on your Personal Tax Account should be the name we have registered for you on your record. If you need to update this name, select the 'name change' link on the 'Your Profile' tab at the top of the page. 
Thank you.

Hi Thanks for the advise. And I have another question. There is an online "Claim an Income Tax Refund Form" in HMRC website. For the section "I claim repayment of the amount overpaid to me", it asks "Is this a PAYE or Self Assessment claim?" Under what situation I should select "PAYE" or "Self Assessment"? For the "Self Assessment claim", "Payable Order" and "Direct to bank account" option is avaliable for it? And for the "PAYE claim", only "Payable Order" option is avaliable for it? Thank you so much
