Random TC payment after renewel- is this normal?

WantToBeSE

I renewed my Tax Credits this week and am due my normal amount tomorrow.
However, today I received a much smaller amount into my account.


Is this normal?


I cant get through to the helpline (I presume because of industrial action today) so thought I would ask here instead.

Would say that renewal has gone through & a revised amount will be on the award letter. Wait for that.

Ah OK, thanks horseunderwater They said not to expect the letter before August.

Thanks BB. I will wait until tomorrow and see if my normal amount is paid. if not, i'll know what my new amount is (the amount that came in today)
