ARE YOU MISSING OUT?<br />

Each week people in Northern Ireland miss out on of millions of pounds of<br />

unclaimed benefits such as Working Tax Credit. Are you one of them?<br />

Working Tax Credit is designed to top up<br />

your earnings if you work and are on a<br />

low income.<br />

Do you earn less than £13,100 per year<br />

and have no dependants? Or do you and<br />

your partner earn a combined salary of<br />

less than £18,000 per year? Then you<br />

could be entitled to Working Tax Credit!<br />

But there’s no way I would qualify!<br />

To qualify for Working Tax Credit<br />

you must be over 25, or over 16 if<br />

you have children, and work at least<br />

30 hours a week - or 16 hours in<br />

some circumstances.<br />

DID YOU KNOW?<br />

Tax credits are tax-free and you<br />

don’t have to be paying National<br />

Insurance or tax to qualify.<br />

How much Working Tax Credit could I<br />

be entitled to?<br />

The amount of working tax credit that you<br />

could be entitled to depends on:<br />

• Your income<br />

• How many hours you work per week<br />

• Whether you have a disability<br />

• Whether you pay for childcare<br />

How can I claim Working Tax Credit?<br />
