I called tax credits when my mat pay stopped after 9 months to advise them that I would be going onto unpaid leave and what my earnings would be for the next tax year once I go back to work etc. I got a new award letter through and knew it couldn't be correct as they had paid me £700 from a previous monthly payment of £160, on checking the letter they had amended my income correctly but totally wiped my husbands income so although it said works 40 hours his salary was at £0!
Called them straight away but the money had literally gone into my account the day I got the letter, I asked them to take the money back straight away, I could make a switch payment and they said no a new award letter would be sent, which it was, but nothing has been mentioned about this overpayment and the monthly payment has gone back to £160...... Will they take the money back when it comes to 2014 renewal??
