Receive Income Tax or PAYE repayments on behalf of others
Find out if you need an agent services account (ASA) and an agent reference number to receive Income Tax or PAYE repayments for other people.
This guidance applies to you if you charge fees to submit Income Tax or PAYE repayment claims on behalf of others and you are nominated by them to receive the repayment.
From 26 February 2024, you will need to register with HMRC for an agent services account and include your details in the nomination section of relevant claim form to receive the repayment.
The details must include your:
- agent reference number (given to you after you’ve created an agent services account)
- name and address (which must match your agent services account details)
This will only apply to the P87 and Marriage Allowance print and post forms from 26 February 2024.
Updates to forms
In early February 2024, new versions of the following forms will be made available:
If the forms do not have a completed nomination section and a valid agent reference number, any repayment will be issued directly to the customer.
Any claim form received after this date that is not in the new format will not be processed.
You should continue to submit the existing claim forms until the new ones are made available.
