An amendment to the Tribunal Procedure Rules 2008, due to come in force from 27 December 2024, clarifies the procedure that applies for sending a notice of appeal to the Tribunal when challenging a decision of HMRC relating to tax credits.
The intention of the amended rule is to better reflect the Court of Appeal’s ruling in Commissioners for HMRC v Arrbab [2024] EWCA Civ 16, [2024] 3 WLR 295. The amendment to the Tribunal Procedure Rules 2008 is in SI1283/2024.
