RE: Tax Credit Office direct phone numbers
Wed 01-Aug-07 02:38 PM |
I have never heard of anybody who has got hold of their direct numbers. But there might be an indirect solution. Here in Liverpool, if there is a delay in paying a claimant's tax credits, they can go to the local tax office in the city centre with proof of their identity (passport, driving licence, jobcentre letter) and get paid over the counter by girocheque. They get either one or two weeks' money at a time and it is meant to be a temporary measure while they are waiting for the tax credit payments to be paid regularly into their bank account. I don't know if there is a similar facility in any other part of the country, but there should be. The TCO don't advertise it, I only heard about my local arrangement 'on the grapevine' through another adviser.
