    I think we are in danger of making things far too complicated.

    In order to receive Free School meals you need to provide your proof of elegibility:



    Child Tax Credit

    [FONT=Arial,Arial][FONT=Arial,Arial]provided you are [/FONT][/FONT]not receiving Working Tax Credit [FONT=Arial,Arial][FONT=Arial,Arial]and your annual household income (as assessed by HM Revenue & Customs) [/FONT][/FONT]does not exceed £16,190[FONT=Arial,Arial][FONT=Arial,Arial]. You will need to provide the original Tax Credit Award notice (TC602) for the current financial year 2012/13. [/FONT][/FONT]

    The taxability may well be a side issue to the OP's main problem abnout what counts as gross income. But it doesn't look like these payments are necessarily taxed:

    "Health and unemployment insurance payments
    Payments received from certain insurance policies that provide sickness and unemployment benefits are exempt from income tax by ITTOIA05/S735. The Insurance Policyholder Taxation Manual (IPTM6000) has more details." ?
    the payment iam getting is not exempt from income tax i wish it was.
