Rumour control says some WTC claimants are losing WTC in April if they work 24 hours or less.
Its not clear if that applies to couples or singles. Ex has not received any letter, but other parents have.
Can anyone clarify if single claimants working 16 hours a week also lose WTC in April?

The change only affects couples with children.

No, the couple together have to work at least 24 hours with one of them working at least 16 hours.
So you could have one person working 24 or more and that is fine, or you could have one working 16 and the other 8.
What you couldn't have is them working 12 hours each, because one must be working at least 16.
