Think we need more info than that - how many kids? any babies under one? how many hours a week do you both work? any disabilities? do you have an overpayment that you are paying back? any childcare costs?0

Is the £139 the amount you got last year? If it is then it looks about right. Tax credits have increased considerably this month. You will get an extra £240 per child, plus an extra £170 in WTC plus about an extra £460 becuase the income level that it starts being reduced from has increased by £1,200. This all adds up to an extra £26 per week0
