We have considerable experience in assisting family members of recipients of personal injury awards to obtain a clearance from HMRC to allow them to receive payment for providing family care without deduction of tax and national insurance.
Obtaining such a clearance can assist the family member to claim for the Carer’s Allowance (subject to meeting the qualifying conditions) and also to qualify for Tax Credits (again subject to meeting the qualifying conditions).
We will also provide help and advice concerning claiming benefits.
Obtaining such a clearance may help to preserve the personal injury funds as there is no liability to employer’s national insurance contributions. Normally we will discuss options regarding the carer obtaining national insurance credits or making voluntary contributions as appropriate.
Operating on a no win no fee basis we will quote you a fixed fee for our work. This is a service which has helped many families in the past.
Where tax and national insurance has been deducted in error – it is possible to have the claim backdated for in date tax years – this is a separate service and the fees are dependent upon the number of years involved. We will, however, provide an estimate of the likely repayments and a quote so that you can make your own decision about making the claim.
