Claming Working Families Tax Credit, How Much In Savings Could One Have? |
A "pen-pal" of mine is planning on claiming working families tax credit, as they fit the working and income criteria, but they have a lump sum invested radical to them by a deceased relative, does this capital count in the WFTC award or only the interest earned annually?
| Answer: Hi In normal savings are not taken into account however the interest from savings is taken into account. It is classed as other gains. The first £300.00 is non taxable. So it would be the amount of interest on the savings for the full year if thats less than £300.00 no need to insinuate it anything over include it. |
