This certainly does sound like a Specialist Renewal Team case. If you contact the main Tax Credit Helpline on 0845 300 3900, they should be able to advise you if this is the case.

If you don't contact the Specialist Renewals Team and complete the renewals process with them then they will probably try and contact you by phone or letter to check the details that they have are correct.

And there are a number of reasons why your payments may decrease but this could well be resolved once your annual renewal for 2009/2010 is processed.

Hope this helps.

Finally got through to the main CTC award helpline and was told that my award has been finalised.....with almost the same figs as was on the provisional. Guess we will have to tighten our belts even more as that's us over £250 pm short on last years payments and no payrises for either of us. Nursery gone up but all our income is down - ah weel. We have our health, roof over our head and food to put on the table so I am blessed.

There are so many people who dont appreciate these things, its a nice change to read your post,

Earnings for 08/09
Earnings for 09/10
Projected earnings for 10/11

This will probably tell us the reason.

Your award last year was based on 08/09 income so is probably the reason why you think its dropped so much. I take it 09/10 income was a bit higher than 08/09?
