Tax refund question
For the years 2024/2025 HMRC asked me to pay £3112.14 which I paid off. I sent a tax refund request last month for professional fees, and I got a new tax calculation saying I owe £2510.14 for 2024/2025. I called HMRC today and they said that the £3112.14 I paid earlier was never applied to my account so she had to manually apply it. She said that I’m now due a tax refund as I overpaid tax in 2024/2025 considering my tax refund. She said she is sending off a refund request for approval.
When can I expect to get the refund and will it come as a cheque or bank transfer?
