Random payment from tax credits.

Hi, I have just got the all clear from Compliance after nearly 6 weeks of waiting. I was paid my regular amount of TC on monday. I have just noticed that they also gave me a slightly smaller amount on Wednesday. In the letter from compliance, it said i will get a new award letter soon. I have no letter yet. Does this mean that this is likely to be my new amount and a change of payment day? Sorry to seem dim, but i've never had two payments in a short space of time before. Thanks.

    Many people receive a random amount of tax credits after they renew , its perfectly normal. Infact I myself have received the extra payment EVERY year upon renewal.

    All you can do is await your paperwork which should follow in the next week or so.
    If you are really desperate to find out what your new payments will be (before you receive the papaerwork) you could always call the helpline as they should be able to tell you.
    The loopy one has gone :j
