how quickly do tax credits adjust their payments?

[misdee]

i told them yesterday that dd2 dla has stopped. am hoping tomorrows payment is at the normal rate. am i dreaming?

not sure about dla but when i had a change in circumstances last year the person on the end of the phone at tax credits said it would go through computer that day and i would have my new award letter in 3days, that week my payment was the normal payment, it adjusted the following week

it means tax credits will be lower. so tomorrows payment should be ok. i hope.

fingers crossed

my circumstances changed and have noticed an extra payment from tax credits but have had no notification in the post.

So pants that tax credits go down as well as everything else

well it was my normal payment. phew.

good news, don't want to be the pessimist but watch they don't give you considerably less next month if they have readjusted it from before month end.
