Will tax credits be affected if my child volunteers for Barnardo's

[Votedmostpatient]

If my child who is 15 applies to volunteer at Bernardo's charity store will this affect tax credits? If it does not and she gets to become a volunteer will i still need to notify tax credits while she is still in full-time education?

She has School Work Experience coming up and she may be able to kill two birds with one stone by applying with Barnardo's for her School Work Experience and once that is over maybe volunteer on a Saturday for 3 hours while she is still at school to gain new skills to add to her CV.

Thanks in advance

You don't need to tell them. You wouldn't need to tell them if she gets a paid Saturday job either. She's still in full time education.

So even if she went to college full-time and had a paid Saturday job you don't need to notify them?

No you don't.

Thanks guys.
