Can u plz tell more abt Maternity Benifits/Allowance.... like what r these benifits, what we get, how to get, how to claim.There is no problem sending children to state schools, and anyone ordinarily resident in the UK is entitled to use the NHS. Benefits? Things like Maternity Allowance are certainly claimable.
wat all kinda benifits/claims some body on HSMP can get.... is there any relevent website.There are many many sorts of UK "benefits" from the UK Government
For extension of HSMP visa, you will have to fill form FLR(IED). According to the guidance/instructions given in this form, WTC and CTC (which has replaced Working Families' Tax Credit, Disabled Person's Tax Credit and the Children's Tax Credit since April 2003) are a part of public funds for immgration purposes. Hence, truthfull answer must be 'Yes' - otherwise you will be making a false declaration.John wrote:As you quite rightly say, WTC and CTC are not listed in paragraph 6, and there is therefore absolutely no problem in you claiming them. And if those are the only benefits you have been claiming, on any visa extension application form, if there is a question like "Any you claiming any Public Funds?", the answer would truthfully be no.
Is there a time limit for when you can claim back any overtaxation? I came into employment in June of 2003, any chance I can still claim back my April/May 2003 tax (assuming I was taxed on a 12month basis)?drewchad wrote: once the tax year is finished you are able to submit a tax rebate claim if you have been overtaxed, this will generally be the case when you first arrive as you will normally not work a full tax year. It is generally only the tax you can get back any overpaid NI will disappear.

Most individuals work in the UK as employees and have Income Tax and National Insurance deducted at source on a progressive scale as follows:
Income tax:
£0 - £4,745 = 0%
£4,746 - £6,766 = 10%
£6,767 - £36,415 = 22%
above £36,415 is taxed at 40%
On top of Income Tax, National Insurance (Class 1) is deducted as follows:
£0 - £4,745 = 0%
£4,746 - £36,415 = 11%
above £36,415 an additional 1%
So some one earning less than £4,745 would pay no tax and someone earning £45,000 would pay tax of £10,207.60 & NI of £3,542.55, leaving take home pay of £31,250.
(BTW I'm a New Zealand CA)
Drewchad has presented the same numbers in a different way for 0 & 10% but for 22 & 40% bands I think a correction is needed.mwazir wrote:I was just going through the inland revuenue website and I found these allowances published at this link http://www.inlandrevenue.gov.uk/rates/it.htmdrewchad wrote:Tax Basics:

Taxable bands 2004-05 (£)
Starting rate 10% 0 - 2 020
Basic rate 22% 2 021 - 31 400
Higher rate 40% Over 31 400
Can you please confirm if I have misunderstood the details.
Subject of course to the details of the regulations that I have already linked to earlier in this thread. So anyone reading this who is from Croatia or Turkey (within the terms of Case 4), and those from Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia or Turkey (within the terms of Case 5) should look in greater detail to see if they are entitled to claim any tax credits.I might not be entitled to CTC and WTC as CTC and WTC can not be claimed by the person subject to immigration control if his partner is also subject to immigration control.
