thank you for information, i do get tax credits with my wages monthly, my child tax credit was going in the bank on fridays but they have now realised i have had nearly all the money im intitled to so what is left they have shared out and it works out at £6 a week, my family allowance goes into the bank and i get other money but not untill next week,
i was using my tax credits of £140 a week to by eletric and petrol and food that we needed and the school dinners,
i knew my money would of altered in march as my daughter who is at collage will turn 19 and they wont give me any money for her then,
when i claimed my tax credits back in june it took 13 wks for them to sort it they told me to go into local office and they would give me a giro to cover untill it was sorted but when it was sorted they paid me some arrears by giro and know they have worked out they paid me twice so thats why the payments have alltered ,
there was no letter telling me this when i recieved the giros i thought i would have to pay back any money overpaid bit by bit but they have done ot this way,
so know i have to make my wages streach for a mth,
hubbys wages are minium as he is on the sick ,
it just felt horible yesterday witheverything else that is going on, and having to go to the boss for a sub was embarssing,
