    Your award is wrong. On an income of £35k you shouldn't get any childcare.Unless you, your partner or kids have a disability? That will make a difference.I'd phone the helpline as if you are overpaid you will have to pay it back, and the longer it goes on, the more you will have to repay.
  • Well I rang them up a 2nd time because despite what they told me last conversation I was still not convinced. Anyway this time I was told it wasn't due to childcare but is making up a shortfall from a previous years payments. That makes a lot more sense and the woman went through it all in detail with me. So I can go sort out my vouchers now and stop worrying about it all.
    Make £5 per day in August= £100/£155
    Paid MS- £5+ £10 GR, £5 RE, £15 MS
    £65 ebay profit
    Waiting on payment- E160 BAI
