As Islay indicates, your question really falls into the 'How long is a piece of string?' category. The tax refund which was due to me earlier this year (and which should have arrived within 28 days) actually took about 6 months to find its way to my bank account.
Conversely though, I've posted a tax claim on a Monday evening (after the last post had gone) and received a cheque for the refund due to me on the Thursday morning of the same week.
