TAX credit customers are being reminded that they must renew claims by tomorrow or their payments might stop.

HMRC have said that claimants have to inform them about any changes to their circumstances that they haven’t yet reported, such as changes to working hours, and must provide details of the previous year’s income if asked.

HMRC’s Director of Benefits and Credits, Nick Lodge, said: “Our message to people is renew early, renew accurately and renew on time.”
