well I finish work on Saturday but I'm still not sure what maternity money will be... my boss cut…

@summertimebaby16, my maternity is 140 every week, I get paid every 2 weeks so 280 every 2 weeks or 560 a month. Youll also be entitled to child benefit, possibly working tax credit - depending on your partners income and obviously child benefit X

@beccastirlingx, do u claim that through the job center or from your employer? the accountant did say I could get other benefits depending on circumstances xx

@summertimebaby16, through the job centre as my employer told me I wasn't employed long enough to receive it from them xx

if ur claiming through gourvenment. u send off your higest paid wage slips in a 66 week period. if uve earn more than the 138 per week in that period u will get that for 39 weeks x

@summertimebaby16, ring up maternity allowance and claim it ur self instead of going through job centre xx

thank you @beccastirlingx least I no I won't be surviving on pence and @sinlou93 what's the difference doing it through job center to the maternity allowance bit? I'm so Unprepared for this wish she found out before then I could have looked into it better xx

job centre can lose your stuff. i went through maternity allowance and it took 15 working days once i sent forms off xx

ive inboxed you hun xx
