I am checking on my child tax credits. I am on contribution based esa, but just failed my medical and wondered how this will affect my tax credits, hopefully for the better! My children are 14 and 16. My 16 year old is going into full time study at college in Sept.
Any advice gratefully received.

Unfortunately we don't deal with tax credits in the forum.

As moderators our area of expertise is in relation to disability living allowance, attendance allowance, the personal capability assessment used in connection with incapacity benefits, and the work capability assessment used in connection with employment and support allowance. So those are the only subjects on which we can provide reliable information. However, you need to bear in mind that boards like this can never provide advice to individual claimants about their specific circumstances, for that you need to use an advice agency.

All we can offer is general information about how the system works.

However, we cannot offer advice to individuals about a specific benefits problem under any circumstances. To give accurate and reliable advice about a specific benefits problem, we'd need to know a great deal about your income, savings, health, household arrangements and more. To give advice without all this information would seriously risk misinforming you.

If you need specific benefits advice, you can download our FREE, 12 page guide to getting help with your benefits

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems
