Any idea how long it takes HMRC to process a P85 and issue a refund?

P85 processing time by HMRC

Didn't find your answer?

Hi All,

I just wondered whether anyone knows how long it takes for HMRC to process a P85, and send out the refund owing?

I've got no experience with these forms, and this one is being done by my friend, but we can't see anywhere an estimated timescale.

Any help would be very gratefully received.

Kind Regards

David

Call HMRC and they will give you an estimated processing time.

My current experience is a minimum 8 weeks processing.
