Hi, i am eea2 holder and my partner is eu national and we both work full time together (at least 60hours a week) and our annual income is about 16000 together. and we have a one child as well. Can we apply for working tax credit??? if yes, how much will we get??? Will we be able to get the basic amount which is £1920.

Sorry, if you're an EEA national with the right to reside (in your case because you're working) then yes, you can claim benefits, use the link I provided above to calculate possible entitlement.
