    call me thick:o , but surely if your income is under 14,155 you would get wtc:confused:

    if you only get ctc then your income is higher. to me people in receipt of wtc are on lower incomes than those just getting ctc, so i am :confused: on these issues


    I receive CTC but not WTC because my only other income is a student loan so I'm well below the £14,155.

    I think it's terrible that some people can be earning less than £14,155 but because they receive WTC they are not entitled. :confused:

    My son starts school this year and I have checked I am entitled to this and my LA still gives the grant (£50).

    Is there a certain date you have to apply for this by?

    I also get CTC but not WTC as I only work 14 hours per week. This way I get free school dinners, free milk, fruit & veg.

    Unlike Devon where you can't get a grant unless all the clothes have been destroyed by fire or flood.

    I should think anyone who deals with the Tax Credits Office is either fuming or in floods of tears ... do you think that would count? :D:D
