im not sure i am receiving enough tax credits

i have had a lot of changes in my circumstances over the last couple of years which i think may have affected my payments from tax credits i will put it in full so it can be understanded.


tax year april 2007 - april 2008 (income £19500)

april 2007 - january 2008 i was working 24 hours a week and my partner full time i was claiming tax credits for my son who lives us.

january 2008 - my partners two children came to live with us, so i had to give up work as it was impossible juggling things so i phoned tax credits and they adjusted my payment to £165 per week based on income above.

tax year april 2008 - april 2009

my payments did not change when renewal pack came through and then in october 2008 the eldest child went to live with his mum so we stopped claiming for him, i then returned to work as the two youngest children had started school si started working 14 hours per week told tax credits i will earn £1500 (nov 2008 - april 2009) they adjusted my paryment to £90 per week, then at three weeks ago i was made redundant phoned tax credits and my payment is now £110 per week,

the thing is in november when i phoned them to tell them that i had returned to work they sent me a new reward notice listing out my new entitlement and if nothing changes as of april 2009 i would receive £112 per week and this was based onme working .so what i am wondering why am i receiving less is it because i have had so many changes which i have told them about every time, also been onto entiltledto.com and that is telling me i should be getting £145 per week would be great, if this makes sense to someone could you give me some advice. thanks
