My fianc! and I have just separated and I am making a claim for Tax Credits.
I have tried both the Entitled To and the Benefits Advisor but they are coming up with different figures.
I work full time earning £15,000. I already claim Child Benefit. My 15 year old son gets DLA (MRC & LRM). I only started work in May 2012 and in the previous tax year my fianc! supported me financially.
According to Entitled To I should receive £89.53 for Working tax credit and £118.72 for Child Tax Credit.
According to Benefits Advisor I should receive £0 for Working Tax Credit and £112.55 for Child Tax Credit and £28.53 for LHA.
Which would be more accurate? I know I will find out for certain once I claim but have been told the form could take 2 weeks to arrive then 6 weeks for the claim to go through.
I imagine it will all change anyway when the Universal Credit comes along!
