Making payments to HMRC

[pmckeown]

Hi ,
Yes I saw that , thank you.
That was from a Irish revolut account in Euro. Did it work for you ok?

@Giggs11 , you seemed to use the GDP account. Was this successful for you and did you fill in the reference information before sending. IE NI NUMBER +IC+Surname+

There is no place for a BIC Code.

You don’t need a BIC.

Use the IBAN provided.

It will debit your sterling balance.

Make sure you get the reference absolutely correct so it gets credited to you by HMRC.

Hi @pmckeown
Yes, I used Revolut sterling account. As it is in London, I used the local transfer rather than BIC. This has been successful for me on two occasions now.
Hope this helps

I used the local transfer rather than BIC.

Both IBAN and UK sort code and account number will work.

An article in Monday's Irish Independent claims that that more than 250,000 Irish people "may be due" to benefit from this.

There are about 3 million working-age adults in Ireland.

≈8% with a UK work history sounds about right to me.

Good morning, I'm in the process of paying my NIC's and want to transfer via on line banking with BOI. My concern is when I am completing the information there is nowhere to put the reference number they state in the letter that includes my NI number. Am I missing something obvious. All advise greatly appreciated. Thank you

I'm with PTSB, I have a space for Reference when setting up a new Payee.

Might it be on the next section after you put the IBAN in?

 

[Dr Strangelove]

Every bank’s system is different but there’s always space for a reference.

Hi there,

My husband is just getting around to paying some years back now. We're still waiting to see if some years are class 2 or 3 but can pay5 or 6 years back at class 2. Planning to do this through revolut. I know it can take months for the payment to gothriugh and be allocated to certain years. If this hadn't happened by April 2025 will he lose out?

Thanks, I just can't see it on bank of ireland set up.

It is only there when you make the payment - not when you set up the payee

I’ve been told over the phone by HMRC that as long as payment is received by April 2025 then these funds are safe and will be credited. Once received, it may take months to allocated them on their system, but as long as they ‘have custody’ of the funds on time they will be allocated eventually.

Maurar,
Check this post by me. I paid via BOI, it took a few goes to find out where to put what information but I got there in the end.

If we haven't heard back by April whether certain years are class 2 or 3 after sending additional information what happens?

@DannyBoyD Were you able to set this up yourself as my ptsb app is suggesting I need to visit a branch to set up international transfers.

 

[DannyBoyD]

For PTSB, I believe you need to use your laptop to set up a new payee, not the mobile app.

 

[Zobeda]

It is possible to set up a domestic payee on the app. I've done it recently.
An international payee? I don't know.

There's no option on the app to add an international payee - only domestic.

Trying to make payment using revout. Only gives 18 digits for reference amd can't fit it in. Anyone else have this problem?
