I am waiting for my NHS Tax Credit Exemption Certificate to arrive. How can I prove I am entitled to help with health costs in the meantime?
A. Providing you meet the qualifying conditions for help (Find out if you qualify), your Tax Credit award notice will be accepted as proof. If you would rather not show your award notice, you can still sign the treatment forms to say that you are exempt. The NHS practitioner will simply mark the treatment form to say they haven’t seen evidence of your entitlement, and this will be checked later.
