CharmedP3 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Just when we thought things had to be put on hold 'cos OH got made redundant a couple of weeks ago (and didn't get paid for MAY)....a little bit of good "fortune" came our way today! I just renewed our Tax credits claim and because I earned very little last year due to mat leave, they have backdated and credited over £2000 to our bank account today!! :jiggy: This means we can now afford to 1) Renew all our passports 2) pay a deposit to our agent to get things rolling there and 3) Pay off (most) the credit card balance (which what we had to rely on without hubbys wage... We should also get his final pay and redundancy pay off the gov't in a couple of weeks which will be more than enough to cover all the rest of the agents/application fee's!!!! WOOOOHOOOOO!!!! Oh and the other good news is Hubby just landed himself another job today too!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
