Chris_Sleeps   10 #6 Posted August 20, 2013 my partner might be able to work full (she only works 15 hrs at the moment) time but i cant work due to disabillity. He/she has to work 16 hours or more to get Working Tax credits. Look into it though. You're entitled to it if you qualify.  Any children? There is also Child Tax Credits.

Vague_Boy   10 #12 Posted August 20, 2013 It enables people to work less; with the money coming from millionaires  Sorry, because your total income is more than £13,000 a year, you probably don't qualify for tax credits  I guess there just aren't enough millionaire around.
