Hi,

You poor thing. I suggest getting down to your local jobcentre or if that's a distance, you can ring them. Well worth ringing if you can't get to the office straight away in any event since, your money will run from the day you state you need to sign on/register with them - so don't lose out by even a few days. I'm not sure when maternity benefit kicks in but if you're receiving benefits that should automatically kick in when it's due to you. Best wishes and I hope you're luck's better from now on.

Hi Nafjor

 

Sorry to hear you lost your job.

 

You can claim Jobseekers Allowance up to 11 weeks before your baby is due unless through complications in the pregnancy the doctor feels you are too ill to work, in this case you can claim incapacity benefit. Once you are within 11 weeks before your baby being born (they will go by the estimated date on your Mat B1 form from the midwife or doctor) you can claim Income Support.

 

You need to ring 0800 0 55 66 88 and make a claim as soon as possible.

Advice given is my opinion only, I am not a legal or financial expert (far from it).
