Tax credits for unmarried couple

[gar555]

Hi,
Just hoping to confirm
I live with my partner 15 years
We have a ten year old son
I am the single earner in the household, can I use my partners credits?
Or apart from children's allowance, any other credits
Thank you

Only married or civil partners can share tax credits when living together

If by "children's allowance" you mean child benefit then that's a tax exempt welfare payment and not a tax credit/allowance.
