Tax credits question

[kaylynn040485]

So i get tax credits but not much as me and OH both worked, cant remember off hand how much but its something like £20 a week, better than nothing.

Can anyone tell me, OH has just been lost his job (he works for Honda) and i need to phone tax credits to let them know but does that mean we wont get anything now with him not working? Not sure how it will work! Kx

if neither of you are now working you wont get working tax credit but your child tax credit should increase hth

i dont work but Oh does and earns 14k a year so in tax credits we get just over £100 per week

As long as you're employed you'll get the tax credits, and more of them seeing as his income has reduced.

Yes you will still get them and they should increase as your earnings will have dropped x
