confirming actual income for TC

Hi,
we are self employed and gave an estimate in July of our earnings on which our award was based.
We did our tax returns today online and since we had received literature suggesting we could access our TC online, we tried to give correct figures today online. It allows us to login and see our latest payment and what the payment will be next week, but no way to update the estimate we gave in July.
(In fact the estimate was pretty close - but I am worried that if we haven't confirmed them as accurate today, it will mean big problems.)
Did try the helpline but since it's Sunday, the helpline is closed.
Anyone know if they will just go by our July 2014 estimate - or will say we didn't confirm and they now want all payments back ??? :(
any help appreciated.

    Their Twitter pages advises to call tomorrow. Probably not something they thought about as it doesn't happen often (last time was 2010 and before that it was open on Sunday's).
  • thank you. I can't find them on twitter - tax credits on twitter is USA and uk tax credits isn't an official site. Do you know their twitter name? thanks again

    You can't give them the actual figure online. You will need to call them today.
