Can they up tax credits?

i am currently on mat leave and receive tax credits for my first daughter and next one due any day can i get extra as my wage has gone down i know i can rig when ive had baby but what about now my bf has been made redundant

If your original claim was a joint claim, then you need to make a new claim as your household income is now different. If your original claim was a single claim then no you can't get any extra money.

The Tax Credits will not be increased now. The child tax credits componement will be increased after the birth of the new baby. This will reflect an addition child and include the higher baby rate element for the 1st year. Increase will be approx 拢60 per week in addition to what you currently receive. Make sure you make a claim to the surestart maternity grant of 拢500 one off payment. The baby rate element is the passport to the grant but you only have 3 months after the birth to claim it.

As to your BF been made redundant he may be entitled to JSA (contribution based) dependent on his nat insurance contributions. Contact DWP. Make sure they DO NOT assume you are applying for JSA income based

Do you rent?. Pay council Tax?...contact local authority for help from housing and council tax benefit

Your working tax credit may be increased after the current tax year (Apr 08) to reflect drop in income.....you could ask if an increase is possible now but i doubt if it will be
