Year after year, since the now 9yr old twins were born, at the end of every tax year, the HMRC say we're going to be investigated - we've been paid too much child tax credits, and thus they want them back!

We've been honest from day one about how much we earn - we couldn't even hide / lie anyway as we're both PAYE employed, so we just fill in the forms each year and leave them to do the rest.

But this year, I've had enough this time, it's taking it's toll on the wife health now so want to do something about it!

if they say that each year and nothing changes then don't worry, if you've done nothing wrong then just leave them to it.
The tax office is just a nightmare, i once had 8 new tax codes in one month alone, yet my circumstances never change apart from my annual bonus figure.

I've been in business for 20 years or more and the best advice I can give you is to go and see an accountant. I've had a tax investigation and believe me you don't want to go there without the support of a good accountant that truely understands your circumstances. They are on your side and will support you throughout. Once you've had a chat with him you will feel much better and your wife will love you again!!! Do it!
