HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) is sending out an estimated 2.1 million annual renewal packs to Tax Credits customers across the UK between now and May 27.
Tax Credit claimants have until July 31 to check their details are correct and update HMRC if there has been a change in their circumstances. The benefit helps working families with targeted financial support, so it is crucial that people do not miss out on money they are entitled to.
However, many people may not be aware there are two different types of Tax Credit renewal packs sent out - one with a red line and one with a black line on the front page.
