Another question it says it works on your weekly earnings.. It says 90% or 139.58 whichever is less so say you where entitled to 139.58 is that a payment of that every week every other week or monthly :/
smp is paid via boss and ma is government
@catherineln25, I think I'm being really dumb haha!! You get smp from your employer but they get it from government? 🙈 xx
Yeah but with your wage where you not entitled to maternity pay from work? Xx@catherineln25
SMP doesn't come from work it comes from the government 😧😧😧 xx @beadyeyes93
Oh that must be horrible for you!! @catherineln25 do you not get it from work ? Xx
I get paid £400 a week.... for the first 12 weeks that's what I'll get... then after that it goes to £136 per week 😧😧😧😧😧 and I get no benefits as me and my partner earn too much money all we get is child benefit xx
@beck_yemm, yea it isn't alot compared to a normal wage lol, so I'm not working anymore but I was at the beginning of my pregnancy so my cab worker thinks I might be entitled to it xx@tuftyturtle
I guess it depends how much you earn lol. for me it's a third of my wages. but for other people it's only like £20 less lol. xx
Yes you would :) oh really ! I think it seems tight ! Haha- i want more haha xx
you would get that amount weekly if you normally get paid weekly lol. I get paid monthly so I get it then. it's paid though your work xx
So say I was entitled to 139 I'd get that amount every week? Just seems so generous of them haha!! @courtniegeexo @beck_yemm @tuftyturtle xx
It's weekly, but the first six weeks is you normal pay at 90% x
every 2 weeks
Anyone else officially at the every 2 week obgyn apt?
Is every body’s tax still saying processing??
Does anyone elses doctor ONLY do weekly visits at 36+ weeks? Mine doesn't do the every 2 weeks starting at 30ish weeks. So up until I'm 36 weeks I'm still only being seen every 4 weeks since she doesn't offer the every 2 week visits. I know normally people go every 4 weeks then every 2 weeks then weekly. Wish mine did it that way.
The first 3 weeks were so easy. I feel like it gets harder every week and people keep saying it gets better, but I don’t feel like it is! I hate being a mom lately!
Can some one please tell me i was reading the pregnancy tracker it says second week you release a egg am i reading this wright in thats were sperm in egg meet!!!
The government sets the rate for smp which everyone who is working over a certain amount is entitled to. Some companies are nice and add extra on top (they don't have to though). I work for the council at a school and get nothing on top what so ever :( xx
