HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has announced that some 323,700 people have still to renew their Tax Credits claim ahead of the deadline at the end of this month and is reminding customers that failing to submit their completed pack in time will result in payments being stopped.
Working Tax Credits and Child Tax Credits help working 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.
Claimants can renew their Tax Credits for free on the GOV.UK website or the official HMRC app and renewing online is quick and easy. Customers can also log into their online account to check on the progress of their renewal, be reassured it’s being processed and know when they will hear back from HMRC.
