It's still saying "under review" and that I'm still "awaiting confirmation to join the group", even though I already have! Emailed through MyAccount (no reply) and rang them directly and no one seems to know whats happening! Very frustrating

We were all ready to sign contracts but when we brought up that we expected to pay deposit minus the htb relief we are eligible for they said they need to ask the builder about it. That was 10 days ago and haven't heard anything from vendors solicitors despite our solicitor asking them for an update multiple times. It's all very frustrating not knowing what is going to happen, will be devastated if it falls through because of this.

Logged in to my revenue and it says that I can now make a claim by uploading a copy of contracts etc. I was under the impression that when I sign contracts I would have to pay the remainder of the deposit less what I had already paid and less what the developer was going to get? But that I could only do this if the Developer was registered............... So if I sign my contracts now am I paying the full deposit and then looking for a refund? Slightly confused! All help appreciated. Cheers

We signed contracts and paid deposit in December, and started the retrospective application in January. Now we've finally got the contracts back from the solicitor, developer signed on 27th Jan and now that is the effective date of the contracts, with nothing to say that we signed last year. Can we continue with the retrospective application and try to convince revenue that we did sign before Christmas, the only evidence we have is the bank transfer receipts. Our house is due for completion in March/April so I'm really worried that if we have to wait for Revenue to pay the developer it will delay us too much, as that doesn't seem to have started yet at all...

I was waiting for well over a week with not a word back despite a query raised and about 30 mins after I called them I had the confirmation through on MyEnquiries that the refund was issuing. Fairly simple process really (retrospective purchaser)
