When can I start claiming Child Tax Credit?

I understand you can start claiming Child Tax Credit whilst you are pregnant - is this true? All the calculators I have seen don%26#039;t give you this option and although my partner and I earn under the 鎷?5K (or 鎷?0K) they all return a nil result but I know we don%26#039;t earn as much as some of our friends and they are getting 鎷?0 a week for a child under one years old. I%26#039;m struggling to understand how it all works. Help!!!



When can I start claiming Child Tax Credit?

Nope. You have to actually HAVE the child in your home. You can%26#039;t claim while pregnant.

Thanks everyone for your helpful advice - I have asked for an application pack and will apply when i %26#039;ve had the baby. Report It

lick of the draw..my hubby earns about 40k and we dont get much at all...25 a week i think



When can I start claiming Child Tax Credit?

I don%26#039;t know how it is in any other countries but here in the US your child has to be born before you can claim the credit... even if the child is born on december 31... as long as it is born before the year is over you get the credit for that year... so if you are pregnant now you will be able to claim the baby on next years taxes... hope this helps



When can I start claiming Child Tax Credit?

i have never been told that you can earn tax child credit for being pregnant, but you can claim the child as long as they were born that year. so from jan1-dec 31 06 you can claim the this year for tax year 06. pregnancy doesnt count. sorry



When can I start claiming Child Tax Credit?

You need to be getting child benefit before you can claim tax credit. We get it, our combined income is 鎷?9K

Absolutely DO NOT BOTHER. They will come back at you in a couple of years asking you to pay them back because they twist some rule or another to make you %26#039;NOT ENTITLED%26#039; even though THEY made the decision to pay you in the first place.



Just happened to me to the tune of five thousand and now I%26#039;m nearly suicidal worrying how I am supposed to pay it back.



The whole thing is a f**ked up joke. You will never understand it and when you do, they will change something else!



When can I start claiming Child Tax Credit?

You can%26#039;t claim a child until they are born....even if they live for a min.....but they have to be given a live birth certificate. Once the baby takes a breath, he/she is now your child to claim.



When can I start claiming Child Tax Credit?

You can%26#039;t claim until after your child is born as you need to send the birth certificate off with your claim (to avoid fake claims)



Don%26#039;t forget that you can also claim Child Benefits which aren%26#039;t income related.



When can I start claiming Child Tax Credit?

u cannot claim tax c while you are pregnant u have to wait until the baby is born



When can I start claiming Child Tax Credit?

You cannot claim Child Tax Credit until you have had the baby. However, the rules are changing for Child Benefit and from 2009 you will be able to apply for Child Benefit before your baby is born.



Check out this website for more information.

Once the baby is born, you should apply for tax credits again. With an income of 55k, you should be entitled to a very small amount. I don%26#039;t know how your friends are getting 80 quid if they are earning more than you. I would guess that their tax credits are wrong or that they have failed to declare all their income. If this is the case, they will end up paying it back. I would recommend that you tell them to get this checked out as soon as possible. I know two people who have ended up paying back over 2000 because they didn%26#039;t tell them about changes in their circumstances.



The threshold for tax credits is 60k so if your income is more than this, don%26#039;t bother applying. Don%26#039;t forget though, that you income will probably go down if you are on maternity leave (especially if you take unpaid leave) and that this means your tax credits will probably increase. Let them know EVERY time your circumstances change.
