any entitlement?

It' looks like DH will get laid off for two months at some point soon.
They will continue to pay him half his wage meaing a take home of £190 per week.
At the moment we recieve child benefit and child tax credit.
My question is would we entitled to any increase in tax credit for those two months or anything else such as a reduction in council tax?
I don't get nearly enough credit for not being a violent psychopath.

    It depends, do you work? If so what's your income? What about the house, anyone have any disabilities or get carers allowance?
