National Housing Trust (NHT) contributors applying for their annual refunds are being encouraged to ensure that they input accurate information during the application process.

This, in an effort to prevent delays in receiving their refunds.

The application period is now open, for refund of contributions made up to 2017.

Speaking in an interview with Irie Fm News, NHT’s Assistant General Manager for Corporate Communications and Public Affairs, Dwayne Berbick, noted that the average period for a pay out is 15 working days.

Customers are encouraged to double check details such as name, banking information, and contribution history.

Contributors should not make multiple applications and should only re-submit an application, if advised by the NHT.

Mr. Berbick noted that contributors need not rush to submit their applications, as the window for submission will remain open throughout the year.
