Vat repayment delayed

Hi, I submitted my vat return from 1 July to 31 July and after few days on my portal I founded twice saying on 9 August sent for further checks and same message on 13 August. By the end of the month the message changed on payment delayed, yesterday on 1 September the message is: Your repayment progress Estimated repayment date has passed 13 Aug 2024 You do not need to do anything right now. We are working on repaying you as soon as possible. We have sent you a letter to explain that your repayment is delayed. I will wait ! Until they come back to me. My question is; can i do submit the vat return for the month of August and expect my repayment or will be triggered to investigation this one as well?? Pls help

Hi 
You can send in your August even though you have not received your payment for the July return.
We aim to make repayments as quickly as possible.
However further checks are sometimes needed before repayments are made by us.
Thank you.
