Hello everyone
After much searching online today decided that this would be the best one for advice by non judgemental people.
I have been claiming tax credits both working and child tax credits for 6 years as a single parent , which indeed I am.
In April of this year my partner had to leave his rented home and he moved in to mine.
I informed the council and immediately stopped getting the housing benefit and the 25% single person council tax claim.
Im ashamed and very embarrassed to say I did not tell HMRC.
I have now received a letter asking for bank statements, utility bills etc so will clearly see that my partner has been paying me each month an amount which fully covers the rent.
My question is, if anyone can tell me , what is likely to happen to me. I feel very angry at myself
Thankyou for reading
