Working Tax Credit and Child Tax Credit

[Emrah]

Hello there

I was an old user here but had problems with login thats why I have registered with a new username. I had a lot of help from Casa and other members here before. thats why I came back here. I have got a question. I hope someone can help me.

I have recieved letters today from HM Revenue about child tax credit and working tax credit. Those are have to be on joint names i know that. so far I did not get any penny from the government anyway I cant cos Im not allowed any puclic funds cos Im on Spouse visa for 2 years.

The thing is worrying me it says

Amounts still to be paid to you for the period shown above

Working Tax credit to Emrah (ME) £10.82 (real amount)
Child Tax Credit to Angela (My wife) £1111.11 (made up)

I dont get any money from the hm revenue all money goes to my wife account. but it says working tax credit to Emrah. is it a problem or is it normal?

Im the main earner in the family. I work 40 hours a week. my wife works 15 hours a week. she get child tax and child tax credit.

Is working tax credit public fund?

Emrah...I can see that you've sent me a PM. The reason I haven't responded to this before is due to the fact that I'm not 100% confident I have the answer. Hopefully, my post will bring your question back into focus on the forum and you'll get the advice you need. Otherwise, why not contact the WTC help line.
Hope all is well with you and your family.

My Wife is British and she applie for child tax credit I think she is qualifying for the benefits.

I think it might be because you ticked the box in Part 6.2 stating that she was the main carer for the child. As long as you ticked the box in Part 1.8 that confirms you are subject to immigration control it should be fine.
