Working tax credits in a couple?

5 replies

Could I just ask if anyone knows how much (if any) working tax credits a couple living together would be entitled to if they bring in £2800.00 before tax each month?

I work minimum 16 hrs a week and my partner works more than 30 a week.

We don't live together currently but hope to in near future and are just roughly going through finances.

None of the examples on the tax credits site match up with our situation.

Its so bloody complicated and just about to change in April, I really couldn't tell you but it won't be much I think.

Sorry not much help!

Thank you for your help,it is complicated Albrecht!

I don't know anyone in similar situation to ask-i'm a lone parent and get about £60 a week in wtc currently.

I'll have to see if i can do benefit checker (thank you Imnotaslimjim) based on rough idea of bills etc as we hope to get a mortgage together-I'm in private rented property.
