The letters HMRC stand for His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs – although you might also know the organisation by older titles like the Inland Revenue. Despite the scary-sounding name, dealing with HMRC really doesn’t have to be a stressful experience. In fact, as a “registered agent” with HMRC, the experts at RIFT Tax Refunds have been tackling the taxman for our customers since 1999. That means we have a great relationship with HMRC – not to mention the many unions, industry bodies and other organisations whose work’s affected by it.
If you’re a taxpayer in the UK, you’ll be running into HMRC at some point – although you won’t always know it’s happened. For example, if you’re working “on the books” for an employer, you’ll be taxed through the Pay As You Earn (PAYE) system. This means your employer will be taking the Income Tax and National Insurance Contributions you owe straight out of your pay before you get it and sending that money straight to HMRC. On the other hand, if you’re self-employed or have other untaxed income, you’ll be dealing with HMRC through the Self-Assessment tax return system. Either way, RIFT’s tax experts will make sure you only ever pay the tax you owe, and always get the HM Revenue tax refunds you’re owed.
RIFT’s tax expertise and decades of experience in handling our customers’ HMRC tax rebates mean we can help with much more than just your Income Tax worries. As well as running the PAYE system, HMRC is also responsible for things like:
Whatever questions, problems or worries you have about HMRC, you can always rely on RIFT’s expertise and experience to help.
You can contact HMRC through their online services system, as long as you have a user ID and password set up (RIFT can help with that if needed). If you need to phone HMRC or visit specific sections of their website for more information, you can find them at:
When you’ve got RIFT on your team, of course, you’ll never have to go toe-to-toe with HMRC yourself. We’ll handle all of your communications with them for you at no extra charge as part of our service. In the meantime, if you have any questions or problems, our RIFT tax experts are available all year round to help!
It’s not always easy to know if you’re owed a HM Revenue tax refund, which is why so many people miss out on the money they’re due each year. HMRC will sometimes pay pack the tax you’re owed automatically – but only if they already know you’ve paid too much. When you’ve got essential business travel or other work expenses you’re owed some tax back for, you’ll have to claim it back yourself. That means proving what you’re owed in an HMRC tax refund claim.
You may also be owed some tax back from HMRC if, for instance:
With decades of experience in handling tax refund claims, RIFT tax experts can take care of every step of your tax refund claim for you. We’ll make sure you get back everything you’re owed, cut out all the stress and guesswork and always make sure you stay in HMRC’s good books. We'll handle any HMRC enquiries too. HMRC is also our registered anti-money laundering supervisor under the Money Laundering Regulations, so you’ll always know that you and your refund claim are in safe hands.
Our many years of experience as HMRC registered agents mean our RIFT tax experts will always stand behind our work.
When you claim your RIFT tax rebate, our unique RIFT Guarantee means that you never have to worry about the taxman reclaiming any of your money. So long as you give us full and accurate information, if HMRC disagrees with the amount we’ve claimed and asks for some money back, we’ll pay it ourselves. It won’t cost you a penny!
