What all benefits/tax credits we can claim after getting ILR

[dhavaluk]

Hi guys,

I will be getting my ILR (from HSMP) next month. I am working and earning above 30,000, my wife doesn't work and has never worked. We have two children. Now, my question is, what all benefits (not interested in housing benefit) and/or tax credits can we claim, e.g. CTC, WTC, etc. and whether my wife is eligible for any benefits as she can't work because of our children, one is going to full time school and other is due to start nursery education in September.

Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.
