The top part of the first page is blank! I think there should be some boxes there.

All you have to do to see if you are entitled is phone the HMRC on 0845 302 1437

There is a message saying you should dial your own tax office for this benefit

Am sending my form off today, so fingers crossed!

Worth pointing out (apologies if it's somewhere else in this thread) but for those paying higher rate tax the tax credit is withdrawn at the rate of £1 for every £15 of income taxed at higher rate - so if one of the parents earned more than £42,450 in 2002-2003 then you're unlikely to have been eligible and therefore I assume unable to claim.

I was skeptical.

I applied about a month ago.

Cheque arrived last Saturday for £601 and pence, was as good as cash when I put it in my account as it cleared the very next day.

Will love the extra money before Christmas

Hi everybody,
I m not sure if I am entitled, my 2 children were born in 1987 and 1989
but I think I will send a letter off just in case I am entitled, the worse that can happen is they say no.

If you claim for both years it asks you to read the intro notes about it - but I can't find them online. Does anyone know if you complete the one form for both years?? Or do you need two forms - thanks

You can only claim for one year now. That is 2002-03.

You had to claim for 2001-02 by 31 January 2008.

You must claim for 2002-03 by 31 January 2009.
