Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the Answer of 11 July 2023 to Question 192344 on Inheritance Tax, what steps his Department is taking to ensure inheritance tax applications are processed within the 15 working day turnaround target.
This question was answered on 11th September 2023
HMRC recognises the impact on customers of not processing these applications within 15 working days and they will continue to prioritise them.
As indicated in the response to Question 192344, the performance target for clearing these forms is 15 working days and during 2022/23 this performance standard was reached consistently, with the exception of one month.
