Please can anyone tell me what I need to do to stop getting tax credits?
I've had so much trouble with them. Every single year I'm asked to pay back thousands even though I tell them of changes immediately. They will send me a declaration every year and I'll have to fill it in and they will award me again but how can I get out of the loop. One year I didnt fill it in or send it back and they ended up charging me for the whole of that year. I've had it with them. I'd rather not receive anything at all. What can I do?

am having similar problems. have thought of sending a letter out that even a two year old could understand (though I'm not sure that is simple enough lol) and then tell them that if they continue to send money/letters etc I will claim harrassment. perhaps a bit drastic but without a better idea, might be forced to try!!!0

You can phone up to either say a partner has moved in or out and they will stop your claim.
Otherwise they will need to you to put your request in writing.
BE WARNED - WHEN YOUR CLAIM IS ENDED, IF YOU HAVE ANY OUTSTANDING OVERPAYMENTS THEY WILL SEND OUT OVERPAYMENT DEMANDS IMMEDIATELY.
YOU CAN THEN ARRANGE TO PAY THE OVERPAYMENT BACK IN INSTALLMENTS.
REGARDLESS IF YOU DECIDE TO END YOUR CLAIM OR NOT, YOU WILL BE PURSUED FOR THE OVERPAYMENT.0 -
I dont want to lie. My partner has not moved out so I cant tell them he has. I just want to pay back what I owe and struggle through rather than have to keep paying back thousands every year.
Its disgusting! Such a farce!0 -
Have you involved your MP at any stage shabinna?
If you havent and have the *fight* in you I suggest that you contact him/her for their advice/help
