    Hi,
    This is what I get, hopefully someone will come and check my maths though to make sure i've done it right:

    Family element: 545
    Basic: 1920
    Couple: 1950
    30hr: 790
    3 x child: 2555ea
    70% of childcare: 4116
    Total: 16986

    Withdrawal at 41% over 6420: 26000-6420*0.41 = 8027.80
    Or: 33000-6420*0.41 = 10897.80

    Gives £8958.20 per annum so £172.27 per week (based on income £26000)

    Gives £6088.20 per annum so £117.08 per week (based on income £33000)

    Hope that helps.
