Tax Credits 2010/2011

[yellownana]

My earnings part time £6700.
Partners earnings £13009

They have now awarded us only £50 a week from £130 a week. A massive drop.

The thing is, I actually go on Maternity leave in August 2011, so my earnings for this year are dramatically lesser then last years.

If i ring and tell them now, will this affect my payments this year, or wont it take effect till next year?

Sorry, need an answer asap :-)

Many thanks
