I am holding a Tier 4 Student visa, my wife and my daughter (1 year old) are holding Tier 4 dependent Visa.

One of the benefits that very close to me is "tax credits and you have an annual income of under £16,190 before tax".

1. Can I apply for Free Childcare for 2-year-olds?

However, I have not apply Tax Credits before. Anyone holding Tier 4 Student visa's kid able to get Free Childcare for 2-year-olds

Thank you very much

You are claiming Tax Credits?
I do not give immigration advice. I refer you to Immigration Rules, guidance, other online content and to your sponsor.

No. Check your BRP: you will see that you have a prohibition on claiming public funds, and Tax Credits are a public fund.

See https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... c-funds--2
