    Apologies if this has already been asked, my wife has been on PUP for the last 4 months, is it possible for me to claim her tax credits or does the PUP still make her “Employed” and in need of her credits?

    Thanks,

    Her tax credits will be needed for the PUP as it is taxable income.

    But you might be able to move some of her band, if you pay high rate tax and have not done so already could be beneficial.
