Working tax credit

[Jemma_x]

Me and my OH dont live together, i claim child tax credits and child benefit for connor but my OH works full time so would he still be able to claim working tax credits even though he doesnt live with us??

I think you's have to declare it as a joint claim before he would get working tax. would mean your child tax would go down but you's get working tax to back it up?? XxxX

he can claim alone if he over 25 and on a low income but not for the child if tht makes sense

i dont think you would be better off claiming together anyway as mentioned your ctc will go down and you will loose your healthy start vouchers xx
