Around 730,000 tax credits customers – including those on the Isle of Wight – will start receiving their annual renewal notices from this week. His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) say tax credits claimants will receive the letters between 2nd May and 19th June 2024. The vast majority of claims will be automatically renewed. Notices with a black stripe are automatically renewed while claimants receiving a notice with a red stripe need to renew. Fewer than 10,000 customers will need to check their information and renew their claim by 31st July, but failure to do so means they risk having their payments stopped. The quickest and easiest way for customers to renew their tax credits is via GOV.UK or via the free and secure HMRC app, which allows them to track their claim and find out when they can expect payments. Myrtle Lloyd, HMRC’s Director General for Customer Services, said:
“Tax credits are valued by many families for their essential contribution to the monthly family budget, so to avoid payments being stopped please respond to HMRC by the 31 July deadline. For more information search ‘manage my tax credits’ on GOV.UK.”
Tax credits are ending on 5th April 2025 and are being replaced by Universal Credit. There is information about this at GOV.UK. Customers will receive a letter from the Department for Work and Pensions. This letter is called a Migration Notice and customers are urged not to ignore it.
Yet despite receiving thousands a year extra and having heavily subsidised rent and council tax they will still be pleading poverty.
Get a full time job and although few declare their live in lover, IF both could be arsed to work 40 hours, they would be on well over £800 a week on minimum wage

Hi with that reply I think your might be on the free pay outs.
The benefit system is not fit for purpose, why should persons working
earn less than those not working.
Benefits should only be available to pensioners who are receiving one of the lowest
Pensions in the world, anyone else should get a job.
No excuses
The reality is that the majority are in work, but you keep on believing the Minstry of Truth like a god little prole.
Remember, Ignorance is Strength.
The island should be re-named Benefit Isle,
It’s full of unmarried Mums with plenty of children
probably different Fathers.
All smoking and Vaping at the expense of us grafters.
