HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) customers using a Post Office Card account to collect benefit payments only have a few weeks left to update the department with new payment details before the April 5 deadline, or risk having payments paused.
From April 6, 2022 HMRC will stop making Tax Credits, Child Benefit and Guardian’s Allowance payments to Post Office card accounts. HMRC is urging account holders to contact them as soon as possible to update their bank account details to continue receiving payments without disruption.
HMRC said customers can choose to receive their benefits and Tax Credits payments to a bank, building society or credit union account.
