Is there a period of reassement where you receive nothing?
I was employed until June last year. Then I was getting job seekers allowance from July until the end of November when I started working again. I notified tax credits with each change except when I notified them in November they stopped my tax credits completely and asked for the details of my new job. I sent this in to them in the 3rd week of December and got a letter in the 2nd week of January saying what tax credits I was entitled to except they never came so I phoned them and they said they never received my new job information. (How did they do the new assessment then?
) they said I had to do a mandatory reconsideration with my total income for the tax year 2017/2018. Between calling them and sending my information off (again) I magically received my tax credits (but not backdated) so I decided to leave the mandatory reconsideration until the start of this tax year so I could give them the entire tax year’s income. I’m ready to send that information now but I’m panicking that they will stop my tax credits again whilst they mess around and lose the information I send them. Is it better to wait until the annual review in July?
