Good evening,
Apologies if I'm putting this on the wrong board.
I was just wondering if anyone can help? I currently work part time as my partner works full time. When I spoke to the tax credit helpline I was told I would be entitled to 70% of my childcare cost paid. I'm not entitled to any other tax credits and when I done an online calculation the other night it told me I wasn't entitled to the 70% either. On another website it said if your total household income is less then 46,000 and you both work 16+ hours you would be entitled to the 70%. My childcare costs is going to be about 250 per month and our total household income is less then 46,000. My child is 2 so I'm not entitled to the free 15 hours yet. I just wondered if anyone could shed any light before I start looking for a second job in the evenings.
Thank you.
