HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has revealed that more than 33,600 customers have successfully used its official app to renew their Tax Credits claim this year and could be the easiest and quickest way to avoid payments being stopped if the July 31 deadline is not met.
Working Tax Credits and Child Tax Credits help families with targeted financial support, so it’s important that customers renew before the deadline to ensure they do not miss out on money they’re entitled to - especially during these challenging cost of living times when every penny counts.
Renewal packs were sent out in May and the app allows claimants to directly access their Tax Credits account at the touch of a button. The app can be used on any smartphone or tablet, at any time, eliminating the need to call HMRC, which could also help customers save time and money.
