    Ah, okay, this makes sense then, thankyou BG, Lulu and Mrs M. Yep, we earned nearly 3 times less than what I estimated.

    I know you probably can't answer this, Would it be possibly reasonable to expect that it might be here before Christmas in your experience BG? Yep, I totally understand that there is nothing I can do to make it speed up or anything, I guess just ime before, they did it automatically so I assumed this time would be the same, but I understand.

    We've already put the tax department off for going on three years now and we can't make the payment plan, which is why we were really hoping to get this asap as they are talking about us selling assets now. Things just went unexpectedly bad.

    Thanks so much for all your help.

    unfortunately, no matter how sympathetic the person you speak to, it will only be pushed through if there is another activity that is payment affecting that the MIV activity is stopping. sympathy means nothing as the consultants are not allowed to queue jump where it puts someone else further down the list without reason

    I have a friend going through this same thing. Any big returns the tax dept investigates to make sure it is all in order and no mistakes have been made,

    yup - if you estimate something like 80k but only earn 40k, they look into it to make sure it's all above board...
