How to claim

Contact the Tax Credit Helpline for a claim form (Telephone: 0345 300 3900; Textphone: 0345 300 3909). It can take up to two weeks to arrive.

If you are already claiming tax credits you don’t need a claim form, you can call the helpline to update your claim. Claims have to be renewed once a year.
