Tax credits and company shares

peppapig14

I recieve child tax credits, and also pay monthly into a company saye share scheme. These are now maturing and I will be selling them. 
I'm confused as to how report these to tax credits? How would I record them in the additional income section as it is only for interest on shares which I will not be getting? 
Thanks

I never reported my SAYE scheme years ago while on tax credits and I sold straight away after maturing. I know you definitely have to report dividend payments if you keep your shares.

Thank you , I am also thinking I do kit need ro mention saye shares 
In terms of dividends if I recieve them and they are then used to reinvest into buying more shares do I declare them?

I always thought the rule of thumb was if you paid tax on a payment then you needed to declare it.  
You can avoid capital gains when the share mature by either putting into an ISA (you've 90 days to do this) or a pension.
