Kindof are u working it out pro rata - the £514 might be from today til end of tax year, so the year would work out at £1028?

p.s. I know bog all about these things tbh I just think it seems really low?!

Kindof- I'm similar to you in that OH earns too much for a drop in my wages to have much effect on our tax credits.

I'm fortunate that I can afford to go down to three days (instead of five) although I don't actually know if work will agree to it yet! What is going to be really tight is when I drop down to SMP for 31 weeks, but hopefully doing a few KIT days will boost that enough for us to survive (I earn about the same for 1 KIT day as 1 week's SMP). We're also lucky that OH can sometimes pick up some good overtime in his job.

Aww you are welcome here all the time

aww thanks - after Mrs_T & Yorky's abysmal treatment on the TTC thread I wasn't sure if you'd all be jealous that I've already got my baby

Have to say I was gobsmacked by it - I joined the TTC Thread & caught first time but back then there were different posters who were a lot nicer!

Hi SJ

faye - luv, it will only get worse esp. when bubs comes along!

It's MSE we're supposed to talk about money kindof :P

Gisi really hope I get more than one for my £5 - think it's a bit of a rip off if you don't!

SJ - I've always quite fancied the town hall for getting married & always like seeing the wedding parties outside, but never really understood how to book/who marries you etc, I will no doubt soon inundate you with all my Qs in my quest to get married one day soon!

Hope everyone is ok, I fell down the stairs again so I've gone and bought a new pair of slippers (I'm blaming them not my clumsyness ) but I managed to grab the banister this time which was just as well because DD was going down in front of me :eek:

I got my 2nd scan date today, it's the 10th of November which seems forever away but I'm sure it will fly by.

Well its ok, you were on here for a while first. Now if you just came on and announced that you had your baby that would be different :rotfl:

Moosmummy - Thanks for that, im at work at the mo, but when i get home i'll have a look

If you used the HMRC site it's prob only from today til April 5th then, which is nice news, so you'd get more over a full year Might make it doable
