How will the tax credits change in april?

2805 · Jan 10th, 2011, 05:56 AM

Im not due back to work until June but trying to work out how many hours i am wanting to go back to work for and trying to find a suitable childminder for lo.

But its difficult trying to work out what we will be entitled to with the change of the tax credits, im hoping to work 25 hours a week.

anyone know?

Many Thanks

I thought the only change was that we would stop getting the baby element for our babys under 1. I have bumped this now so maybe someone else will no

I think they are also changing entitlement levels to around 42k joint income , so if you earn over that, then from April your money will stop x

I thought that from April you had to work 24 hours in order to get tax credits? Am I wrong?
