IHTM31661 - Assessing: repayments: informing the taxpayer

To inform the taxpayer or agent how much you intend to repay and how long it will take, you should prepare a standard letter SL20 at the same time you prepare the Sect 6 (IHTM31641).

Do not send the letter to the taxpayer or agent:

• Prepare the letter, but leave it undated.
• File one copy and place the outgoing copy on the front of the file, signed, but without a hole punch.
• The Repayment Security Officer will date the letter and send it out when they authorise the repayment.
