Hi all
Just wondering if anyone could shine some light here, I think I'm entitled to nothing and it seems a bit unfair.
I have an child from a previous relationship (not married) that didn't work out. Unlike most single parents her mother and I are cooperating very well. I have the single parent tax credits for this child which is fine.
However, I have been in a relationship with my current girlfriend for 3 years now who's a non EU foreign national. She's entitled to nothing, not allowed to work, not allowed to claim SW, I have her on VHI as request by the dept of immegration. I pay for everything and receive no tax credits. We have been living together for 1 1/2 years and we are now having a baby.
Can I claim any tax credits for either her as (co-habiting couples)?
What about further tax credits for the new arrival. For example, I'm claiming single parent tax credits for my first child but I'm not a "single parent" so to speak for the new child and I'm also not married!!
