My UK husband has to send in his "Tax Credits Annual Declaration" for year ending 5 April, 2017. He is self employed. Last year we had to put me on this form because we were now married, (I am here on FLR(M) ) but we put 'zero' income claim for me because I had not started with my small business yet.
Since then I have begun business and submitted taxes in the US and UK, I only had to pay tax in the UK not on my profits (it was a loss) but on my other income...bank account interest etc. It was around 100.
Now he's freaking out because this form part 1 + 2 is us separate and none of it applied to me but the last "income from self-employment", I put "zero". BUT the next page Part 2 INCOME DETAILS continued has Joint Other Income and that's where we're stumped. If I put some income there won't it affect his tax credits? What do we put there?
Any help would be appreciated!
