Tax Credit and other benefits which may affect the payment

Tax Credit is a beneficial system in itself, which has been devised to either provide help for those who work but cannot sustain a normal living condition and for those who have the custody of one or more children. There are however tons of other benefits which someone can apply for and also there are many benefits which may affect the amount of Tax Credit an applicant is to receive. Let’s get to see a couple of these benefits and how they affect the amount of Tax Credit, be it working tax credit or child tax credit.

It’s essential to know that as the whole credit system will be part of the Universal Credit system from March 2017, anyone who has been found eligible to receive Universal Credit, will automatically fail to receive any other tax credit.

When it comes to any other benefits, applicants have to bear in mind, that there is a long list of other types of benefits which actually do count as an income, therefore they will play a substantial role in counting the whole amount of tax credit one is to receive. Applicants need to obtain all information with respect to the sorts and types of benefits they are or they are to receive to make sure they will have a positive effect on their further tax credit payments. It’s essential to know that once someone or someone’s spouse has been approved in the Universal Credit System, they will automatically become illegible for getting Working or Child tax credit.
