Hi guys just having a little discussion with the wife as she gave up work due to being pregnant and we decided she would be a stay at home mum (he should be coming out soon we were wondering what exactly can we claim.
i dont like the idea of claiming to be honest but if its there it'll make things easier
im in full time employment bringing in 25k a year
she's been out of work for last 6 months. (but she's only brought in a grand in the past year )
babies due next week

any help would be appreciated guys cheers in advance

You will be able to get Working Tax Credits, Child Tax Credits and of course Family allowance and maybe help with Council Tax but that is very much subject to earnings and savings

any figures about?

Hmmmm not an easy one, if you were to incite racial hatred you'ld be banned from working and forced to live in a 10 bed house in Kensington, assuming you won't, then
Working Families Tax Credit may be a topic to search, good luck.

Done think of it as a bad think that your gonna claim your only claiming what you as a tax payer is entiteled to mate.

All the best

if you get 25k i don't think you qualify for working tax credit, i don't anyway! you should get child tax credit at minimum amount about 40 quid a month ish. and child benefit and thats it!

hope this helps

What did ur other half used to do work wise.

If she was working for a lil longer before giving up she would ofbeen able to claim Maternity Allowance.

Basically there are no other types of support into bambino is here,

Then u can claim Child Tax Credits for her... you wont be entitled to working Tax credits due to your wages.. and then ofcourse your Child Ben of £20 a week.

There are no Jobseekers, or income support as u yourself earn to much
