OH earned £16k this year but really got just under £11k, so alot was taken off in tax. Iv always wondered why tax credits/benefits take earnings before tax even though you only get a much lower amount. 5k seems a big drop these days and I wish we did have 16k take home Might seem a dumb question but Iv always wondered as you dont actually take that higher amount home as its taxed and reduced
