Friend insisting I can claim working tax credit.....this doesn't seem right to me.

[PutinSmellsPassItOn]

I've recently started a new job, not mega money it's £11 an hour and Its a 25 hour contract (( but doing 32 ))

Have one disabled adult ds at home and dp is his carer so claims carers allowance for him.

I earn around £350 a week before tax. (( haven't been paid yet so not sure what it will be after tax )) Plus £69 pw carers allowance.

I put my details in and it said I could be able to claim just under £100 pw. Does this sound possible ?? I honestly didn't even know adults could claim but if I can I'm.not going to lie it would be a massive help in my current circumstances.

@x2boys have you run your numbers through UC? That seemed to open up a lot more for me than just CTC.

I thought it was too good to be true. We'll get by but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask on here in case I was missing something.
