Around 1.5 million tax credits renewal packs for the 2023-24 tax year will be issued to people from early next month, HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has said.

The annual renewal packs will be sent out between May 2 and June 15.

Tax credits help families with targeted financial support.

More than 500,000 tax credits customers will need to reply to HMRC by a deadline to confirm their circumstances for the 2023-24 tax year, or they could risk having their payments stopped.

Once people receive their pack, they will have until July 31 to check the information is correct and notify HMRC of any changes to their circumstances which may affect their claim.
