This time it is yet another branch of the Dept Work and Pensions.
On page two they ask for my wife's NI Number ~ I complete that without difficulty.
On page six they ask for my wife's Employee Number AND her NI Number ~ again I complete that
On Page nine they ask for the names and dates of birth of my children. These will not have changed since the last form I completed, nor from the one before that, nor the one before that and so on back to the time they were each born. I complete this section.
Then on page ten they ask if we receive Child Benefit for these children ~ They know fvcking well we do but I tick yes and, as instructed move to page eleven (Had I ticked no there were more questions such as who does claim child benefit for these children?)
On page eleven they ask who the child benefit is paid to, what is the amount paid and the reference number.
Now they know how much because they set the friggin amount but what really boils my urine is that the reference number is the same as it has always been and is my wife's NI number. Every year we go through this performance. Why would any of it change unless they changed it?
What steaming pile of camel droppings designs these forms?
