answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/06/2022 answer text VAT relief is available on a wide range of eligible building works. In such cases a zero or reduced rate of VAT applies, providing relief without the need to claim a VAT refund. VAT refunds for DIY builders and converters allow self-builders to reclaim VAT on eligible building materials and some related services when constructing or converting for domestic, non-profit, or charitable use. HMRC aims to respond to claims relating to the DIY Housebuilders Scheme within six weeks of receipt. Therefore, it is not expected that VAT refunds will routinely be completed within twenty working days following receipt of a claim. answering member constituency South East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Lucy Frazer question first answered 06/06/2022 08:37:08 answering member 4517 label Biography information for Lucy Frazer
