Reasons for entry

Cases appear on the ‘Manual Repayments List’ (MRPL) when the company has claimed a repayment on a CT600 return for a CTSA AP, under one or more of the following headings

  • Income Tax
  • Construction Industry Scheme Tax

Note: Until 6/4/02 a company could make a claim for repayment under the Construction Industry Scheme tax. From the 6/4/02 onwards companies can no longer make a claim and you should not see any claims for periods after this date. If you have a Contractor appearing on the MRPL work list please consider the possibility of either error or fraud and refer any suspect cases to the Repayment Security Team (RST) using the dedicated mail box ‘RIS Repayment Security Team, Referrals (RIS Risk Ops)’

  • Research and Development Tax Credit
  • Land Remediation Tax Credit
