SIP Shares and Working tax credits
Karvya
Posts: 1 Newbie
I'm looking for some advice regarding selling some of my SIP Shares. We currently recieve working tax credits. The question is, when I sell these shares do I have to declare this as income to working tax credits? Bearing in mind when I buy the shares each month, this is not taken from the income I declare to WTC.
The shares I'm considering selling are over 5 years old, so they are completely tax free. My gut feeling is I do have to declare but any advice would be appreciated
