Tax credits customers have a month to renew their claim or risk having their payments stopped, HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has warned.
The annual deadline is July 31 and more than 300,000 customers who received a renewal pack with a red line across the first page and the words ‘reply now’ still need to confirm their circumstances for the current tax year to continue receiving payments.
Circumstances that could affect tax credits payments include changes to living arrangements, childcare, working hours or a change in income. The quickest and easiest way for customers to renew their tax credits is digitally via GOV.UK or the HMRC app.
