Hi All,

My wife was recently made redundant and is currently in receipt of Jobseekers Benefit. She is likely to me out of work for a few months. We are jointly assessed and I now want to claim some/all of her tax credits. What do I need to do to maximise our income - do I just contact the revenue, exlplain the situation etc or is there another tact I should take?

Thanks
 
Thanks for the reply - I am registered, must just dig out my pin. How many can I transfer over, is there a maximum?
 
If you are not already in receipt of the married credit you can transfer it from her but she will retain her PAYE credit. It (the PAYE credit) is not transferable.

She will be using that anyhow to cover her JB which is taxable
