What should I do if I don't think I have been overpaid?
You can’t appeal against a decision to recover a tax credit overpayment, even if the overpayment was the result of The Government department that calculates and collects taxes. See full definition making an error.
However, you can appeal if you think there was a mistake in calculating the amount of tax credits you were entitled to and therefore there should be no overpayment.
