I have 3 children aged 4, 2 and 9 weeks the younger ones are both in nappies and the youngest has formula milk. They obviously need feeding and clothing so would the tax credits and family allowance be taken as payment of debt. I usually spent around £80 a week on shopping before I buy the nappies and milk or clothing for them. I get statutory maternity pay
Thanks for that information I hate the idea of my children missing out because I have debts it seems very unfair. I don't claim other state benefits I manage just about on the tax credit whilst I'm off work
