SG75300 | Appeals and reviews: defending HMRC’s case at tribunal: categories of tribunal case

When the tribunal receives a notice of appeal it will allocate a case to one of the following categories

• Default paper

• Basic

• Standard

• Complex.

Once a case has been allocated to a particular category the Tribunals Service will send copies of the appeal and notice of decision to the HMRC Clearing House together with a covering letter which specifies the information HMRC is required to provide, how long HMRC has to provide the information and where it should be sent.
