Working 21 or 16 hours a week?

[HedgeHogFoxBadger]

I have just dropped my hours to 21 a week but have been asked if I want to drop to 16 a week. I would love to be able to do this with 3 kids but does anyone know how this would affect working tax credit?

I don’t know how it would impact but I would suggest doing an online benefit calculator based on working 16 hours and again working 21 hours. Remember to change any childcare hours accordingly etc and then compare before you commit to anything. I’m sure someone more knowledgeable will come along shortly though.
