    Hiya I tried but as with above, I made it even more difficult to read! I don't understand why it won't copy and paste across?

    I have revised it because they assessed us as having an IPA of £345 despite the fact when Child Benefit is taken off, we are actually in negative. I am SO puzzled :-(

    I don't know if this is a silly question, but, why would they take the child benefit off? It is income so why would they take it out of the equation?

    Hiya

    They have just replied very quickly to an email I sent in. Apparently this is just for the TAX when my OH is placed onto a NT tax code. Duh I feel stupid - although it clearly says IPA at the top of the letter. Anyway all sorted now, and these figures were accepted so may come in useful for someone!

    Child Benefit is not included as income for an IPA.
