Tax credits and unable to work

11 Posts

Hi hope this is the right place to post..
Basicly I am struggling for child care if I temporarily reduce my hours or take time off unpaid would I be able to get help from tax credits we have already recieved our award for the year..
Think I can see this issue continuing into September.
Going to talk to my employer this afternoon...
