Two jobs

Hello
I currently work full time but have accepted a new job in the same company 3 days per week on a higher band pay, and will keep my existing job for the other 2 days per week.
I currently receive tax credits at the rate for working 30 plus hours per week.
Will this continue as one job is 22.5 hrs and one is 15hrs , but they are two separate jobs and will be paid separately.

If it's the same company then it's the same employer so one job.
Even if 2 jobs it doesn't matter.0 -
It's total income that counts (and the hours).
So long as you do the minimum hours, they then look at the total income. Not "per job" else we'd all be signed up for 10 half-day jobs/week0 -
Thank you. I am glad it is counted as a total.
Hopefully over the next few years I can progress enough to be away from tax credits altogether as they are so confusing!0
