Tax Credit Renewals - support thread

johnsons_baby

I posted my renewal back 5 weeks ago. Single person, 1 child so only CTC, they over estimated my income last year (based on previous tax year and being employed at the time) by about £5k.

Heard nothing yet, just wondered if on CTC only would I get a lump sum or only for those on WTC as well?

How long are postal renewals taking this year? I notice most on this thread have phoned to renew.

I have had a provisional award through for for this year but I am expecting a small lump sum as I believe we have been underpaid for 2011/12.

I posted mine back in the envelope provided on the 25th May

eta- Ours is a joint claim with no childcare

thanks

I posted my renewal back this year and on the 10th day I received any money I was owed.

My award notices followed 3/4 days later.

Edit - mine is also a joint claim , no childcare and I was owed a small lump sum

Got my renewal pack a few days ago but am a bit unsure what to put on the form as my Oh cashed in a pension (lump sum we wont be getting any monthly income from it) that belonged to the company he used to work for until last year when it went into administration. We don't know if this should be counted as income or not? If it is then we will have an extra £11000 income on top of what was estimated for the year and I am worried we will have a big over payment to pay back
