Urgent Help needed on Tax credit claim

[rkabishi]

Can anyone help?what happened if you make an appeal about a refusal to award child tax credit ,after 30 days of the refusal date?(approximatelly 35days or 40 days later?).
Actually what happened was that we made a joint claim, it was refused and we were told by those stupid staff that my partner can make a single claim as she is the one that has an NINO,which she did and few weeks later she was told to withdraw that single claim and appeal the first joint claim and the 30 days were passed already but we did appeal after reading some of John s posts from this forum and awaiting for their response,at the same time we contacted our MP.
Another question,she actually claiming HB and CTB on her own,does she have to put me on those benefit also?(she is a refugee(5 years limited leave and i am destitute asylum seeker)
