Child Tax Credits - Stopped.

Hi All,

I received a letter last week to advise that my child tax credit payments have now been stopped due to a change in responsibility of child.

There has been no change in responsibility, my son has lived with me for the past year and that is still the case. I claim the child benefit and his Mother pays me CSA payments. She has not had him overnight during this period and sees him a couple of times a month.

I have been advised I need to complete a "mandatory reconsideration" form of which I shall do.

Now, what is the likelihood of receiving my payment as expected whilst this is all being processed, or being backdated?

Do you have any further suggestions as to how I can prove residence and that I am entitled to the Child Tax Credits?

Thank you.
