Tax credits Underpayment??

[sloulou88]

Hello Ladies!

Ohh the dreaded tax credits time of the year!!!!

I overestimated our income by 2.500 will I get some extra tax credits as an underpayment?

Also has everyone had their pack returned etc! How long did it take for the new amount to start coming though.

I also got £15 wtc from March (when i told them i was on maternity) they told me maternity allowence counted as income and turns out it doesnt! Will i get something back from this?

Thanks Ladies!

Took no longer than 2 weeks for mine but it can take up to 6 weeks.
You may well get a rebate, and this will likely come in with the new amount

Thanks for your reply!!! When you say if I get a rebate it will come in with the new amount do you mean get paid into the bank account the same time? Sorry baby brain today im getting confused at everything!!!xxxx

I got a rebate and the new payment in at the same date, two seperate amounts. The letter came in a few days later explaining what was what.
