Single parent claims WTC & CTC from April 2003 to the start Nov 2003 when she stops working, notifies IR. All well so far. Clients partner moves in end Nov 2003, he works so claim for new claim for WTC submitted. IR use partners income from start of 2003, i.e. includes period he did not live with claiment or receive WTC himself, and IR then decide client has received £3000 too much WTC since April 2003!
This seems clearly to be wrong, however this is WTC so I would not be surprised at anything. Anyone else come accross this or can point me in the direction of the legislation that clarifies this scenario?
New benefit, administered by the IR..... we should have seen this coming!
