Tax Credits

[LucyS]

Im so confused... got my renwal form through... last year it worked out that I put £12500 down as earnings and have been being paid regarding to that...

Now I had my p60 through last week and also my renewal form.. my earnings on p60 were only 8k odd. I have been on Maternity Allowance for around 8 months (do I need to tell them about the whole lot or is it true the 1st £100 you dont need to declare?)

Then if its slighlty less than £12500 what happens, as wont they pay this year on that? Confused!

Hi,

You were obviously given payments based on a higher wage so you need to call them up and give them the income on your P60 and ask them for a refund for the whole year. It happened to me a while back and I was given back nearly 3k.

Good luck

The thing is I have been on MA so need to add that on to the P60 amount, do I have to tell them the whole amount as heard you dont have to declare the first £100 of MA? Also gonna have to work out weeks etc Ive been on it which could take a while!
