Dear HM Revenue and Customs,

HMRC commenced automation of P87 Claim Forms on 6 November 2023.

1. Please provide the total volume of P87 claim received since that date, as well as the number of claims which were automatically processed.

2. Of those claims which failed the automatic processing, please provide a breakdown of the reasons why they failed the automation.

3. Where a claim goes through the automation but does not result in a repayment, please confirm what correspondence is then sent to the taxpayer or their agent.

Yours faithfully,

Dear Information Rights Unit,

By law, you should normally have responded promptly and by 13 March 2024. You have neither responded by that date or let me know that you couldn't respond or provided an updated date.

Yours sincerely,
David Collingwood

Information Rights Unit, HM Revenue and Customs

Dear David Collingwood

I am writing to update you on the status of your FOI request and to
apologise for our delay in issuing a response.

In dealing with all FOI requests HMRC works to the standard set by the
independent Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), which is to deal with
at least 90% of FOI requests within 20 working days of receipt. While we
meet this target most of time, there are some cases that take longer than
20 days to process (for example, because of their complexity). Your FOI
request is one such case.

I want to assure you that we are still working on your request and aim to
provide a reply shortly. I will update you further should we not be able
to issue our response within the next fortnight.

Kind regards

HMRC Information Rights Unit
