    Thank you for your question.


    No, there is no age limit to apply for the programme, HMRC welcomes applicants from all age groups. Hope this helps.


    I am not on the tax programme, but I am 52 years old and there are so many careers opportunities open to me in HMRC. So, go ahead and apply! Good luck.
