Stakeholder Pension - Tax credits renewal

I know it's a while off yet until I have to worry about it, but I'm wondering about the Working Tax Credits renewals.
This is my first year of claiming Tax Credit, so apologies for asking a daft question, but how does my Stakeholder pension contributions work?
For example, if I've paid in £1000, during this tax year, is that the figure I give?
Or, as I seem to be reading, but have totally confused myself now, is the figure I give the one that includes the 20% tax "payment" that'll be added to my pension fund?
If anyone can understand what I'm asking, and could answer me, I'd be much obliged.

Last year I put what I actually paid but having read the notes again I'm not sure?

Thanks Joanne, sorry for the delay in replying - the joys of nightshift.
I was just wondering about it last night, whilst I was quiet at work, and decided to look it up. The more I read, the more confused I got.
I'll have a look at that link, see if it helps me.
Thanks.0
