Written Question
Child Tax Credit: Refugees
Monday 4th February 2019

Asked by: Kate Green (Labour - Stretford and Urmston)

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many resettled refugee families arriving in the UK since 2015 under (a) the Vulnerable Person’s Resettlement Scheme, (b) the Vulnerable Children’s Resettlement Scheme and (c) the Gateway Protection Programme are impacted by the two-child tax credit cap.

Answered by Elizabeth Truss

Refugee families who arrive in the UK with children all of whom are born before 6 April 2017 will not be impacted by the policy to provide support for a maximum of two children. Children brought into the UK under the Vulnerable Children’s Resettlement Scheme will also not be impacted by the policy if they qualify for an exception by being (a) adopted where they would otherwise be in Local Authority Care; or (b) in specified non-parental caring arrangements. Specific information on the number of resettled refugee families arriving in the UK since 2015 who are affected by the policy to provide support for a maximum of two children is not held by HMRC.
