Working tax credit while living with parents?

Hello
I'm sure this must have been asked before, but I can't find a similar thread, sorry if I'm duplicating..
I am 35, self employed, live alone, no kids and claim working tax credit.
I am considering a very kind offer from my parents to move in with them for a while, and was wondering if I could still continue claiming working tax credit? Would my parents incomes be taken in to account when considering the amount I'd get? I'd still be self employed, still be 35 (!), nothing else changes, just my address.
Thank you.

Thanks Dogger, everything I've read seems to suggest the same, I just can't believe it's that straightforward..! Cheers0

Yes it is. Technically you are 2 separate households living in same home.0
