change of circumstances and Tax Credits
Mon 02-Aug-04 02:16 PM

Client has a partner and a child. They already get the minimum CTC. She began her maternity leave last week. She rang to tell the IR of her change in income. She tried to give them the relevant dates and changes in income.
They have told her to work out all her income for the rest of the tax year and apportion it out over the whole tax year. She can then give these figures to them
This seems odd. I can't see anything in the Tax Credit regulations that says the applicant has to do the calculations.
Can they be right?
Carol
