  • Marrage Allowance Claim Rejected - Wrong Version of Form Used

    We have submitted a marriage allowance claim for 2024-25 and previous years, but we've received a letter saying the claim has been rejected because the wrong version of the form was used. We downloaded, printed, and completed the MATCF form from the gov.co.uk website and sent it via post. The letter says we should have used the MATCF form, which is the same form as we used. The letter says the version of the form was changed on the 26th of February 2024, however the form used has "10/23" on the footer. We've checked the gov.co.uk website again since receiving the rejection, and exact same form with "10/23" is still available for download. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/apply-for-marriage-allowance-by-post https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/65c3622c28a4a00012d2b9cf/MATCF_fillable_English_baselined.pdf Has the wrong version of the form been uploaded to the gov.co.uk website, or can someone please let me know where correct version of the form can be download from? We can resubmit the same form again, but worried it would just be rejected. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks, in advance.
