About this app

The only app to access your personal tax details with HMRC. Take control of your finances and join over 1.1 million people using the HMRC app every month. Download the HMRC app from the UK Government here.

We are currently advising customers of their new tax codes for the new tax year. Use this app to check your code and update next year’s estimated pay if needed.

The HMRC app is also a handy way to:

- check your pay a few days before pay day
- check previous payments from your employer
- find out how much Income Tax you should pay
- check your company benefits
- find your tax codes
- claim a refund if you’ve paid too much tax
- work out your take-home pay with the tax calculator
- set reminders for your Self Assessment payments
- check and save your National Insurance number
- manage and renew your tax credits
- access your Help to Save account
- check your Child Benefit
- check your State Pension
- check progress on forms you’ve sent to HMRC
- read messages from HMRC
- update your postal address
- choose to be contacted by HMRC electronically, instead of by letter

You can use your Government Gateway account to sign in. If you don’t have one, registration is easy and fast. You will need your National Insurance number and birth date to start.

Once you’re set-up, you can sign in quickly and securely using your face, fingerprint, or iris (depending on device support).

Original issue seems to have resolved itself however I can't increase the score that much. An app where buttons open a web browser is a waste of storage space (6 of 9 work in app). I downloaded an app to have everything centrally and not have to navigate the website. Useful for finding my national insurance number, but now that I've added it to Google wallet, I no longer see the point in keeping the app.

The app is actually quite helpful once you get your head around government websites. However, it it is still no help in contacting HMRC. That is still a nightmare, webchat is currently unavailable due to "technical difficulties". Phones don't get picked up at all, there's no queuing system or callback available. You get the impression they don't want to speak to the taxpayer.

Hi thanks for the review. We'll continue to improve the app to give you the information you need at a glance but we're also exploring ways of using the app to message HMRC where appropriate.

Claiming a refund does nothing if you've been making payments, even voluntary ones and even if they're now cancelled. I was waiting 2½ months for the £1500 owed to me, with no response, then after 2½ hours on the phone was told the app won't allow that. Thankfully sorted out by talking to someone (when the phone lines were working), but no notification or anything from the app or website to say it wasn't going to work.

Hi you can use this page to check when to expect a reply about your refund claim https://www.gov.uk/guidance/check-when-you-can-expect-a-reply-from-hmrc (processing times vary according to the type of refund and method used to claim) If your claim has passed the expected reply date there's a link to contact the team dealing with your request.

What's new

We have added a link to information about the High Income Benefit Charge for Child Benefit customers. We have also made Help to Save information available in Welsh.
