Tax Credit Claimants Have One Month Left To Renew Claims
Written by adminChris on June 28, 2011
Tax credit claimants in Gloucestershire are reminded today that they have just over one month to renew their claims before the 31 July deadline.
They are asked to act as soon as they receive a renewal pack from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC).
HMRC’s Director of Benefits and Credits, Steve Lamey, said:
“You should be renewing your tax credits by now. The sooner you renew, the sooner we can check your payments are right so that you won’t have to pay money back.
“It’s simple – if you don’t renew your claim before 31 July, your payments may stop.”
The tax credits helpline number is 0845 300 3900.
