Hi,
I am just looking for a little reassurance,i have recently split from husband,and informed tax credits,who said they would end my present claim and send me a renewal,which they did,i filled it in and after 3 weeks i have just had a letter saying that my claim is being examined and i need to send them a whole load of paperwork,work contract,bank statements,utility bills,council tax bill,etc,i will send all these things,altough tv license is in hubbys name still,as he still pays it,also want sky bill.
What i was wondering is,why do they need to see my bills and bank statements and is this just routine and i happen to be unlucky because its nearly the end of the tax year?will any of my bills,ie car insurance or sky affect their decision?
any help would be appreciated
