Have seen a notice doing the rounds. saying that from April 2016 the income threshold to claim Working Tax will go down from £6420 to £3850 at the same time as the minimum wage rises to £7.20 To claim you must work at least 16 hours and 16hrs at £7.20 is £5990.40 per year.
Thats £2140 over the threshold to qualify for tax credits.
This means that no one will qualify for this benefit after April 2016.
Does anyone know whether its true?0 -

The change in threshold was delayed/cancelled last year.
16hrs isn't the criteria for all either, it can be 16, 24 or 30 depending on the individual.0 -
