Tax Credits: HMRC calculators
HMRC have produced various tax credits related calculators which are on their website.
This section of the site gives links to these calculators with a brief description of what they are about. We advise that these calculators are used as a guide only and that before any action is taken claimants should get some advice from a welfare rights adviser at a local advice organisation.
This aims to help claimants calculate their childcare costs more accurately. This is an area identified by HMRC as high risk in terms of error and fraud. You can find out more about calculating childcare costs in our understanding childcare section.
