    Everyone must be thinking de ja vu when they read posts in here lol

    Anyway i didnt get a specialist letter (feeling all left out) but i did get my usual renewal pack filled it in and posted it off last week.

    Up until April 9th i was working full time but sadly contract ended and now im on jsa,

    I received today a provisional tax reward with the earnings 15k (see below) this letter wad dated 27th may, probably around the same time as they received my renewal form

    My earnings inputted last year was for 15k, my earnings i got 09-10 were 10k, obviously now i am not entitled to working tax but i didnt know if i am still in a position for an underpayment?

    I take it as it was just a provisional i received today i will be receiving another one to say ..

    child tax credit... x amount
    not entitled to wftx which i expect

    but would i be due a payment from the difference between 08-09 and 09-10 pls

    thanks in advance x

    Thank you, i started worryin when i got the letter then after reading posts on here decided to get it over and done with so called the specialist team first but couldnt get through i wanted it done to put my mind at rest then started worryin because they renewed through main line so kept ringing and ringing monday and she spoke to me like i was doing something wrong maybe she was having a bad day but its made me feel like crap.

    Ive never had to sign a declaration when Ive renew over the phone is this a new thing??, the guy I spoke to said the phone call is like signing the declaration if that makes sense

    I renewed 3 weeks ago on tuesday still not got our award notices im sure they will turn up soon enough

    I was worried sick when we got the letter from the specialist team I even rang the main helpline 1st to renew but I was still thinking about it, so I rang the specialist team and it was fine the lady I spoke to was so nice and polite she just asked me to reconfirm our incomes and said all was fine and was done

    I really advise anyone to just ring them and get it over with.

    In comparison my childcare costs are high.:cool:

    I have 2 daughters attend nursery 3 days a week and our costs are £800 per month. It works out at £40 each roughly.

    Never mind under the Torie government Im sure TC's will be abolished!

    I cant phone the Specialist Team yet. I havent got mine or OH's P60 :mad:

    I wasnt asked for a contact number when i called the specialist team. I've had my final payments from last year into my account and called the normal line to ask about future payments they told me dates and amounts and that everything was fine and i will get my written confirmation in a few days time :-)
