I just hope its as easy as you say will soon know if its anything else if get housing benefit and income support on my door!

So i need to call them and state i am wondering why they have sent this accusation letter and do i can i ask if accusation has been made? I dont think i am going to win this though as partner does stay over i pay for bills etc we eat together sometimes- they would have to prove this though surely? I am feeling guilty and sure this is the whole point of this letter, what other questions did they ask?

Yeah he has own place nothing comes here but letter states acting like couple socialising as couple which we do. I am certain ex has contacted them rather than just routine letter as none else in area same circumstances has had one

But it states to call, my partner has and does stay here but not all the time,i dont know what to do -there is no evidence to say he stays here unless they have been watching

Also I get tax credits but child ones but they do not go to nursery

I am slightly concerned and going to call monday, I have a partner but he doesnt live with me, but wondering if ex husband has tried to grass and cause trouble but if this was case would I not be contacted by job centre and council as well. I also worry if I call will I not be made to feel guilty

Thanks for quick reply, the letter states 'your single tax credits claim;is it right? We check thousands of claims each yr to make sure we pay right, not to much or to little. It is instant your claim is right before we start our checks. If wrong you may be over paid and have to pay a penalty. If you call us now we will help to make sure your claim is right before we start making our checks and you wont have to pay a penalty. You are claiming as a single person but we know a lot of people dont tell us about their partner. It then states the meanin of partner and you are still a couple even if you act as a couple, support each other financially etc. Remember that the longer you leave it to put your claim right, the bigger the over payment will be,if yo have been over paid we will work out how much you would have been paid if you had told us about your partner on time. We will help you to check the info is correct and if not put it right. Remember if you call now to put your claim right we wont charge you a penalty

I have received a letter stating people forget to inform of partners living with them and stating what is classed as couple etc . Is this letter a random letter or the start of a investigation as I seem to be the only one to have received it, it advises to call them
