Hello
Need your help so hope somebody has the knowledge.
Facts
I am being made redundant at the end of Jan (31st)
My wife is a stay at home mom and gets tax credits £46 and child benefit £80
My salary was 25k.
Questions
What will happen to our tax credits?
As in between jobs can i claim job seekers allowance?
Is there anything else I can apply for?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Sorry to hear that,
I can't help on Tax Credit as I've never had them, but yes you can claim Contribution based job seekers allowance.
You need to go to your job centre after you have been made redundant and explain that you have been made redundant, and they will take everything from there.0
