Maternity Allowance
Hi there,
My husband and I will be moving back to the UK from Brisbane in February 2011 - I am currently pregnant due in January - just wondering if anyone knew if I would be entitled to any kind of maternity allowance or other benefit. I intend to return to work after 6 months.
Any info would be greatly appreciated
Cheers, Sarah

As you are not a single mum you cant get income support and not at present a job seeker cant get job seekers allowance. If your hubby will be trying to claim benefits as a job seeker he will claim as a couple getting something for you.

Though once baby is born you can get child benefit and child tax credits depending on household income.
