If you mean how long does it take to get a tax repayment, normally about a month if HMRC has all the info it needs. If it has to go to employers, etc for more info, then it can take longer.

Not sure what the purpose of your question is.
If you are talking about self-assessment then the requirement is that the return is logged onto the computer within 24 hours of receipt. It then takes about 7 days to calculate and process. If on processing you are due a rebate, certain enquiries are first made before issuing the rebate and this can take between 4 to 6 weeks.
It could take longer if information is required from employers, as it then depends on how long it takes for the employer to respond.
If you are waiting for a response to your tax return then give the self assessment helpline a ring on 0845 900 0444 and they will give you the latest information.
If you filed your return on-line you can see how far it has got by logging on and it will tell you your returns current status.
Give the helpline a ring just to confirm that the return has been received and processed.

Good old Fengirl2, always the optimist.
Most repayments take at least six to eight weeks.

Longer than the time available .. i.e. about 13 months per year (normally)
