                    My wife's due to give birth any day now   :j  and we've just realised that we can claim some sort of benefits etc but are not sure what.
She's Hungarian, but we've been married 2 1/2 years and she's been living in the UK for 4 years. She hasn't worked for the last 6 months and I'm in full time employment. What benefits / credits are we entitled to?
Thanks!

            you will get child benifit once the baby is born
 depending on how much you earn there is a grant of 500 ask your midwife for form
 and also when the baby is born , once again depending on how much you earn you can apply for family tax credits . hope this helpsFree of dept Thanks Martin
