Tax credits replace Working Family Tax Credit, Disabled Person's Tax Credit and Children's Tax Credit in April 2003. If you are currently receiving one of these you should have received notice from the Tax Credit office of your new tax credit award. If you have not already done so, please pass that information onto the Benefits Service immediately.

You may obtain a claim form for tax credit from an Inland Revenue office or from their web site: www.inlandrevenue.gov.uk/taxcredits

In October 2003 Pension Credits will replace Minimum Income Guarantee, delivered through Income Support for people aged 60 and over.
