Petition Action

change the high rate of child benefit charge to be household based not individua

Petition Details

currently if parent 1 earns 55000 and parent 2 10000 child benefit is paid back.
but if parent 1 earns 49999 and parent 2 49999 nothing is paid back.
meaning lower income family’s are put further at risk. the calculation should be similar to child tax where it’s based on household earnings

Additional Information

because it’s a government policy which is outdated and unfair in this current world
