If after filing your tax return online and the Tax office owes YOU money when do you get the money if you have requested being paid it as a lump sum ?

Ages......

I just got a cheque this week after submitting all the info in March. You do get a small additional payment in lieu of interest too.

How much are you expecting?

They tend to owe me money every year - couple of hundred or so. It's always been within a couple of weeks.

There is a simplified reclaim process for people on PAYE/ tax deducted at source only so you don't need to mess around with tax returns etc.

Just phone your tax office or check the HMRC website - http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/incometax/overpaid-thro-job.htm#3

I got overpaid tax back a couple of years ago within about a month of having my P46 - decided it was easier to do that than try to reclaim at the time, and it covered summer holiday spending money very nicely indeed.

Shame I'm not due a refund now really!
