I think it is too late to claim for the year 01/02. Also if you check your p60 for those years and the letter code on it ends in a T or H then it means you have already had this rebate.

Have a look at the date of the original post!

Why revive a thread 2 years old when there's about 100 posts in the last couple of months about the same thing?

Just recieved this email, i rung and asked, and i hadn't claimed it. Fingers crossed.

Happy New Year everyone! You may be interested in this.
I have a friend who alerted me to this tax allowance.
The year before tax credits were introduced there was a different non means tested allowance available which was never advertised by the Inland Revenue so you probably didn't know it existed. It is called the Children's tax allowance 2002/03
You can still claim this £520 allowance before 31st January if

• You have a child born between 6 April 1986 and 5 April 2003
• The child has lived with you for all or part of 2002/3
• You worked and paid tax for all or part of 2002/3
• You or your partner earned more than £6000 in the year 2002/3

You can claim £1040 if

You can answer yes to the four questions above

One of your children was born between 6 April 2002 and 5 April 2003
Have your NI number ready.
Phone HMRC and ask them to check whether you ( or your partner if appropriate) have already received this allowance and if not you will be advised to download CTC11 from the website and send it in. It is as easy as that. You may be eligible for a cheque for one of the amounts.

You can't claim twice and if your final tax code on your April 2003 P 60 ended in H or T you have already had the allowance.
Your marital status is irrelevant
Claiming does not affect current or future entitlement to Working or Child Tax CreditIt could make a nice little windfall after Christmas,
Good luck!

I was only highlighting to you that it was an old thread, I realised it wasn't you who revived it!

An e-mail with similar details to those on Stulaunch's post was doing the rounds at work today. I thought maybe it was a scam, so googled it. There are/were some HMRC scams going around, but this doesn't appear to be one of them. Therefore I can only assume it is not a fake. A couple of guys at work called the number and said that it seemed genuine. On the face of it, it appears a little too good to be true that notification that HMRC are giving away hundreds of pounds arrives via a scratty e-mail. The form you must complete doesn't appear to ask for bank or credit card details. Just a shame I don't qualify!!

Since the deadline is quite close, I'm surprised Martin and his team haven't highlighted this in their weekly bulletin because I would imagine that many thousands of Moneysavers must qualify for this money.

Hi
Can i ask i am currently receiving child tax credit and have been doing for about 7 years does this mean i will have already had this or is it a seperate allowance?

Tax cedits were not calculated for 2002/03 earnings( not for us anyway) . i know this because of my circumstances at the time. i have queried this a few times when calling tax credits and noone can give me an answer. In fact the last person got quite stroppy.
