Individuals and employers had until 30 September 2021 to apply to HMRC for a refund or waiver.</p><p> </p><p>HMRC repays amounts that were paid in DR scheme settlements, and/or waives amounts of instalments due that have not yet been paid if certain conditions are met.</p><p> </p><p>As of 28 January 2022, HMRC had processed approximately 1500 applications, of which approximately 1000 had received either a repayment, a waiver, or both. Approximately 500 of the applications processed at that date were either invalid or ineligible.</p> answering member constituency South East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Lucy Frazer question first answered 14/02/2022 14:27:16 answering member 4517 label Biography information for Lucy Frazer
