Never tell the CSA about Tax Credits

February 4, 2010

When we were telling the CSA over the phone about our income we made the mistake of telling them we received child tax credits. The following week our assessment went up as they now took that as my hubby’s income (he isn’t working at the moment). When I rang the same woman to ask what was going on she said she had a duty to include it as his income because I had told them about it and that if I hadn’t admitted it to them there was nothing they could do.

So please….do not admit you get tax credits because their hands are tied until that point. She also said she believed it unfair for my children to pay for his….f**king jobsworth.
