Child Tax Credits

Hello
I receive Child Tax Credits for my son - about £60 per week. Son is in full-time education but now has a part-time job himself. He is earning about £50 per week and from December he will be able to earn about £100 per week.
Do I need to inform tax credits about his income? Am I still entitled to claim?
Many thanks for advice.

Seems child has to be working 24 or more hours a week before you are no longer eligible to claim.The comments I post are personal opinion. Always refer to official information sources before relying on internet forums. If you have a problem with any organisation, enter into their official complaints process at the earliest opportunity, as sometimes complaints have to be started within a certain time frame.0 -

And as per page 6 that only applies where a child has left full time non advanced education.
If your child remains in full time non advanced education there is no limit to how much he can work and his income doesn't affect your claim. Tax credits is based on your income and your partner's if you have one.0
