My brother has recently got custody of his daughter, at moment not sure if it will be on a permanent basis. He has had her for 3 months and as he is self employed and isn't able to work as much. My question is that unfortunatley he isn't upto date with his tax (3 years behind), will he be able to claim any benefits??
