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 />
