The In-work tax credit provides further cash incentives to working people. The current cap of hours is 20 hours per week for a solo parent or combined 30 hours per week for a couple. It provides cash payment to working families with children of $3,770 per year (plus additional $780 per child).

From 01-07-2020 the hour test is being removed. Thus, the new rules would allow all working for family recipients that have income from employment to receive In-Work tax credits. This will benefit families that work a fluctuating number of hours.
