As a basic calculation I have worked it to be:-

Working Tax Credits - Nil
Child Tax Credits - £3625 pa = £69.34 per week

Hope this helps

Hi,

Is their a higher element for a first child?

I earn 17.5k and for 1 child it shows

Working Tax Credit - £2.30 pw & CTC £59.36 pw.

My wife is expecting and 2nd baby is due end of May. If I select 2 childrens then it shows:-

Working Tax Credit - £2.30 pw & CTC £108.29 pw. So basically £48.93 pw extra for another child.

In effect as there's a family element which you get one of, and a child element per child.
