if your husband is working 45 hours a week he will get the living wage if he's not already reached it. (unless he's self employed?)

This.

If employed and working 45hrs, your partner should earn £16,848 next tax year subject to pension contributions (and assuming he is at least 25).

However tax credits will still be based on £15,950 because the income won't then increase by more than £2500.

There may be a small amount of WTC. I can't calculate without knowing full circumstances however.
