missuscluck Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Wow thats fantastic. When did you apply? I am sending mine off today. Thankyou ju. Im not sure wether we are eligable or not, I cant find our tax code for that year but I thought I would send it anyway. I havnt rung them to ask because I will get all exited about it if we are and will be waiting for it so I thought it will just be a nice surprise if we do.

little chickadee Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 We're sending ours off today We were very poor that year, so hopefully we'll be one of the lucky ones! Our P60's don't end in one of those unlucky letters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I was wondering last night (as you do) how many of these cheques will end up buying eglus/cubes I feel mine (if we are lucky) will just top up the bank again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhotchick Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I was wondering how many people have been successful in getting this, or maybe you haven't heard yet. I still haven't got round to telling my sisters about this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms Marple Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Thank you so much for this. I missed the first post - I need to read faster!

Chook n Boo Mum Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Must get DH to check the paperwork...he's printed off the email I sent him with all the details. Apparently an accountant was doing our tax returns at that point - not sure why on my account, I never thought I was paid enough money to warrant that... ! - & he'll get onto it today! Thanks for the reminder RHC...am ever hopeful Sha x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phosphorus Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 OK, just called them, you need to go to this link http://search2.hmrc.gov.uk/kbroker/hmrc/forms/viewform.jsp?formId=3282, print off form 11CTC and then send it back to them. Thanks for that I got all excited but then if this is the link I have a few problems The original post said that you needed a child to be born within the dates but this form requires a child to be in existence on 6/4/02 - my daughter was born in October so it won't apply to her. Also that the relief isn't means tested - well it is as they will claw back £1 of credit for every £15 the higher rate tax payer is taxed in the 40% band. Therefore for the £1000 odd tax allowance if you are taxed at £7500 or more in the 40% band you will get didly squat. Okay not many will fall into this. Oh and I was getting so excited - please tell me someone that I have the wrong link/application form 11CTC? edited for typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhotchick Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Phosphorous, Your child did live with you for part of that tax year, and they were under 16 (minus something) You might get a proportion, and then if one of you pays higher tax rate it might be reduced again. I'd just fill it in and send it off, let the tax office sort it off. They can only say no! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
