Step 2

Note: If you are dealing with a joint claim, you must repeat this step for Applicant 2 by selecting ‘Inc 2�.

Note: If there are RTI figures available, these will have been input already onto the tax credits system with an ‘R� status. If these figures are then replaced by new figures, the status will automatically revert to ‘A�.

  • select ‘Inc1â€� on the options available, you will be taken to ‘Income - Applicant 1 -Sterlingâ€� screen
  • select ‘OKâ€� on the message ‘UC start date associated with this claim, income for UY cannot be entered or amended in this functionâ€� that appears
  • make a note of any income type figures including zero

Note: Any boxes that are blank can be disregarded.

Step 3

Using the figure(s) previously noted

  • divide the figure obtained for each of the income details by 365. This will give the daily rate of income

Note: If the figures are from a leap year, divide the income by 366.

  • make a note of this figure
  • take no further action.

Note: This step needs to be repeated if you are dealing with a joint claim.
