First Child entitlements?

Hi all

We are expecting our first child in August and I am hoping for some advice on if we may be able to claim any benefits.

Between us we earn around 55k annually. I am happy to provide more info if required.

Any advice gratefully recieved!

Thank you
I've just started entering the competitions (July 07). When I win I'll update this signature. Look on the bright side, I shouldn't have to update it very often.

    You'll be able to claim child benefit of £20.70 per week.

    You may have to deal with the child benefit high income charge though if one of you earns more than £50,000
