Hello
I recently got married and put in a new claim for tax credits as couple
I received the form TC1120 from the tax credit office preston asking my wife to fill and also requested documents which i did send to them with the exception of my wifes passport which is with the home office.On the form it asked for whether my wife has an NI and if not whether she has attended an interview for one which i ticked yes b'cos she did go on the 3 april 2012 since the local council set that up due council tax benefit.
We received the uk passports for myself and my 2 kids back togather with the reference i added showing the IN interview.
It is 13 wweks since i put in the claim and everytime i call the help line i get different answers like claim being process,claim rejected due to no NI for wife,claim reffered to specialist trace unit to look into.
I am in a very difficult situation b'cos i lost my job in 2010 and have been doing agency until recently when i got a 6 hours a day job on a minimum wage.My income droped to 817 per month and have a mortagage to pay which takes the whole of this income.I am struggling with other daily necesities like utilities and even food.
I would appreciate it grately if i could get any quidance on what to do.
Thank you to everyone.
