It was pretty self explanatory once you realize you both have to confirm the thing on your account.

I tried with MyAccount too and I have the same problem.We cannot complete your request because our records show that your personal details need to be updated. Please telephone your local Revenue office or contact us through myEnquires. Please quote rule 1. Thanks in advance

Wife will have p60 this week so we should be ok with my 15', 16' and her 15', 16' and 17' entitlements together for HTB, so I think that's what we will do. I understand a tax rebate vs HTB. The rep on the phone said specifically that HTB would be rebated to my bank account. This seems to go against most of the other info I've got on this so far. Any idea what turn around time is once we've p60's submitted?

To need to get tax clearance, which includes filing all your medical expenses etc. It took me 24/48 hours from filling out my P21 online to being able to progress with my application. The developer gets the HTB money, not you (for a new build rather then self build), the money doesn't go into your account. The 21 days notice is usual for the White goods, are you sure its not 56 days to sign?

I mean, how many days until Revenue confirm your [font=arial, sans-serif]Application Number, Access Code and Equity Entitlement information? [/font] I should be clear for the previous years already. Thanks!

Our contractor is registered and we have provided our access codes etc to the solicitors We signed contracts last week and paid 5% deposit to our solicitor. The contractors solicitors has now reverted to say they do not accept the Help To Buy scheme for deposits and the the amount Will be deducted from thhe amount due at closing. Has anyone else has this issue? It appears to defeat the purpose of the scheme given it is meant to help first time buyers with affording deposits.

sdssarah wrote: » That's weird, once I did the claim I just got the Claim reference number instantly on screen and into MyEnquiries. The builder needs that code to make the claim on their side. Once you send them the code it's up to them to complete the claim on their end, they have to fill in a form, etc - I don't remember seeing any message about number of working days from Revenue when we made our claim and I don't see it on either of the emails they sent us to MyEnquiries, but I've done everything I need to do, the rest is up to the builders to get their money. Maybe call Revenue to clarify the situation?

For all self-build projects, once the application is approved by Revenue, the money will be sent to your account. There is no question of it being allocated otherwise – such as to top off your mortgage.

That’s why I say it won’t see out it’s full term in its current form, I think they will alter the criteria. I’m glad it genuinely worked out for you and was used as intended. i’m very dubious about that being the case for the majority and prices did increase in line with the scheme. we got it also and didn’t need it, the only thing it Helped To Buy was a bunch of useless s*it my wife got for the house that we really didn’t need.
