the difference between working 15 hours and 16 hours?


sorry if this is in the wrong place! Does anyone know what happens if you go back to work at 15 or 16 hours? what difference does it make?

Im looking at my part time work hours and Im confused about this threshold?

I need to get z into a nursery and its sooooo confusing!

Don't you need to work 16 hours to be entitled to child tax credits towards child care?

You need to work 16 hours to qualify for working tax credit I know it's changing in April but I was told that that rule only applies to NEW applicants not EXISTING... I don't know how true that is though.

Im going back in June, and according to the tax credit people, it doesn't matter if I go back 16hrs per week, 20hrs per week, or not at all, I'm entitled to the same amount - £20 per week!! Go figure!
