Sorry Marsha
Kind of missed your post on TC's.
I would say that any overpayment (HMRC certainly treat OP's this way) is a debt so should be included. Although I suspect the cads at HMRC may tell you different.
I am not the most experianced in this field but if you go to www.taxcc.org I'm pretty sure that you will more advice.
Good luck and sorry i missed your post earlier

Some interesting stats re Tax Credits:

2003-2004
There were 5,670,000 claims for Tax Credits.
1,879,000 claims were overpaid by a total of £1,931,000,000.
That's 33.14% of all claims OVERPAID.

2004-2005
There were 6,458,000 claims for Tax Credits.
1,958,000 claims were overpaid by a total of £1,695,000,000.
That's 30.32% of all claims OVERPAID.

2005-2006
There were 6,480,000 claims for Tax Credits.
1,902,000 claims were overpaid by a total of £1,573,000,000.
That's 29.32% of all claims OVERPAID.

I guess if anyone is caught up in this mess and also they are going through an IVA, only complications can follow.

Hi Marsha
I know the gals are full on preparing for the Westminster Day, so if you sent to coordinators you may wait a couple of days for reply.
