WTC's and Job Grant questions....

[Kriminal]

Hello again,

 

I thought I'd put two questions as one thread :

 

1. How do Working Tax Credits get paid ? Are they weekly, monthly, over a period of say 3 months, or just as a lump sum ?

 

2. Following on from my last thread, I've now been looking into 'Job Grant'. It says that it depends on your circumstances - in my case being single, I'd be entitled to £100, as I'll be going back into full-time work at the end of this month. The question is, do I pay this back ? The reason I ask is because it has the word 'grant', which I usually associate with something you have to give back.

 

All input appreciated

Working tax credit are usually paid on a weekly basis.

 

Im regard to the job grant, if you qualify it does not have to be repaid. As a rule, Government "grants" are not repayable, government "loans" are repayable.

Aha.....that's great. Thanks for your help Erika.

 

I'm really not switched on with all this stuff, as you can probably tell

You can request working tax credits to be paid either weekly or every 4 weeks
