HMRC Fund Release Delays
A recent update from HMRC confirmed that some Research & Development Tax Credit payments are being delayed as a result of investigations into irregular claims.
There will be enhanced, extensive compliance checks and standard processing times will increase as a result of this.
HMRC will be aiming to pay claims within 40 days with the ambition of returning to the standard 28-day processing time as soon as possible.
