Tax credits

Hello and thank you in advance.

I recently had a change of circumstances and notified tax credits. They updated the system 1st thing Friday morning.

They said the computer will now recalculate my new award and issue any back pay.

Does any one know how long this usually takes for the computer to recalculate and issue a payment.

Thank you

    The system usually updates within 2 working days, allow a further 3 - 4 working days for the payments to re calculate and reach your bank account. So, possibly, this Friday, but more likely the start of next week.

    Thank you for your reply. Least I have a rough idea when the changes will happen.

    Thank you once again.
