Director of Benefits and Credits Steve Lamey said: “Time is running out to renew. Claimants need to renew by July 31 or their payments will stop.”

Claimants are urged to take care when renewing tax credits as errors could mean they receive less money than they are entitled to.

They should also watch out for fake ‘phishing’ emails sent out by fraudsters in the run up to the renewal deadline.
