 HMRC delays - legacylad
Each tax year I draw down the max possible from my private pension, up to the tax free allowance. Not much left now as I’ve been doing it for a decade, but it’s lasted quite well.

A strange amount of tax is always deducted which I reclaim online using a P55 ( I think).

The timescale for repayment is now long overdue...annoying really, and having logged into my Govt Gateway account there’s no indication as to when.

They are quick enough to fine and charge you interest should you be late.

That’s unusual in my experience - tax refunds have always been paid within a matter of days from the submission of a return for me. That is from a self assessment tax return though, not a P55.

I've had a couple of "p55" payments. The first went well, the second was taking forever so I called them and it was done quickly.

Give 'em a call...
