Tax Credits

Sparkles87

Just checking figures before baby brain kicks in and I forget.

Baby is due in June, so we'll be asking Tax Credits to recalculate based on this year's income.

I am a student until June, so will April's payment of student finance need to be counted as income for this year?

Then my wages/maternity pay from April 13 - March 14 & OH's wages from April 13 - March 14 as an estimate. But some of the maternity pay gets disregarded, how much?

Bump, anyone know about the student finance?

Not counted for TC AFAIK, but some parts are.

I'll try and find a link

Thank you. Looks like just the Adult Dependent Grant is counted.
