tax credits!! am I entitled!?

[babyalan13]

This might be a strange question. But I am questioning everything since receiving a letter from concentrix working on behalf of hmrc. I am married. I work 30 hours term time and earn 10,000 a year.my husband doesn't work(he does the childcare!)so he gets no benefits. We have 4 children. Age 8,6,4 and 1.so I am entitled aren't aye?? So confused!:(

There's a lot of it about, apparently.

Concentrix have been contracted to do a trawl -and scare people witless--

What does the letter say? Is it asking for documents?

Aye!! Loads of information regarding my employment. I've worked there for 3 years. Am starting to think am not entitled

It sounds like you are eligible to me.

Just send them the info and don't stress it. Thousands of people are being contacted as a routine check.

Go on the calculator and see - Google tax credit calculator.

Am just questioning everything now. So worried. Starting to think I'd be better of not working :(

You sound entitled to me too.

It's just very heavyhanded checking.

Do what they ask and you'll probably never hear from them again. There's a post similar to yours here most weeks and that's how they seem to turn out.

Sorry it's scared you. Unfortunately I think the bastards mean to scare people.

I would say you are entitled!

They are checking lots of people at the moment, including me,

Ring HMRC with your income & they should put your mind at rest.
