RM25 - Submissions to HMRC
Trusts
The instructions tell you to submit certain matters on repayment
claims to HMRC Trusts.
Exceptionally you may also need to seek advice from HMRC
Trusts on a point of difficulty or a problem which is not covered
by the instructions.
DISTRICT ACTION
When submitting a case to HMRC Trusts
- follow the instructions at ADM6.109
- send the file, if there is one
- be sure to include all relevant
information if you do not wish HMRC Trusts to correspond directly
with the claimant or agent, enclose a note to this effect with the
file.
If for any reason you need to borrow the file, simply ask HMRC
Trusts for it. Do not
- send routine reminders to HMRC Trusts
or
- disclose the HMRC Trusts telephone number
to a claimant or agent.
HMRC Trusts ACTION
HMRC Trusts action depends on the point at issue but they
will
- return straightforward cases with
guidance
- retain files for other cases until advice
can be given.
Where appropriate HMRC Trusts will
- correspond directly with the claimant or
agent
or
- issue a formal refusal of the claim
and
- take any appeal before the Commissioners.
