Change the way Tax Credits are calculated to stop overpayments

Petition Details

Tax credits are state benefits that provide extra money to people responsible for children, disabled workers and other workers on lower incomes.
Have you ever had an over payment for Tax Credits even though you advised them straight away of your change of circumstances as they asked? read on..

Additional Information

Have you ever received an over payment for Tax Credits?
This is because HMRC calculate your entitlement over a 12 month period they predict that your situation will remain the same for these 12 months, so if you then change your circumstances more than likely you will get an over payment usually in the £100's.
I suggest they calculate it weekly or monthly and remain the same each week/month unless we advise them of any changes and hopefully see over payments £10-30 instead of putting us in debt.
