HMRC change of name - timescales

Postby eb321 » Mon Jul 11, 2016 2:20 pm

I have just called HMRC to change my name on their records (the website wouldn't accept my name because of an unusual format)
The phone adviser said that his system accepted it.
I'm just wondering how long it normally takes for Self Assessment and National Insurance records to be updated, once the change is submitted. Does anyone have any idea please? The Self Assessment online portal still shows the old name.
I need an accurate SA302 / Tax overview with the correction.
Can anyone advise please?
