Childcare element of CTC

Options
Hi,

We have been claiming CTC since our son was born in Feb. We received a letter through the door a few weeks ago saying we need to repay £xk in tax credits. However, even if we are repaying out of this years award is the childcare element protected? Because we will need this for my partner to go back to work..

Any help appreciated...

    Why do you have to pay it back? How have they adjusted the award?
