    I was having a chat to my friend today about child tax credit and she was under the impression that this year they are just checking up on people who claim child care only and doing spot checks on that group whereas our other friend says they check a percentage of ALL CLAIMS whether they claim child care or not? Who is right lol?

    Surely they should check all claimants?

    I will be interested to learn which friend is right from someone who maybe posts on here but works for tax credits.

    We have never had childcare as part of our TC, we were subjected to a random check the year before last - it was all good, they just went to HMRC and DH's work to get figures to check we'd given correct info!

    Still no sign of my renewal having been done, 3 weeks on Monday since I rang up to renew.
  • Mine is 7 weeks but week 6 i had the childcare review letter.

    Have you got childcare ? Are you self employed?

    They seem to be checking anything which is a high risk case?

    Auto renewals are less than 2 weeks!

    We are still awaiting our final award for 12/13. We've got our 13/14 award but no sign at all of last years one, has been 8 weeks now.........
    There is no shame in not knowing; the shame lies in not finding out.

    I recd my renewal around the 19th April, i posted it straight back. a few weeks previous i had informed them of a change in circumstance as my daughter was diagnosed with aspergers and entitled to disabled childs tax credits.

    I have now recd a provisional award for year 12/13.

    I have also recd 2 lump sum payments into my bank account.

    I then recd a provisional award for year 13/14.

    I informed them of a change of bank account and again have recd another provisional award for year 13/14.

    Ive recd my nhs excemption card also.

    I still have not recd any finalised awards? Anyone got any ideas why? Should i contact them?

    Thanks
