Hi eveyone
i was hopeing someone will be able to help me. Myself and my partner are expecting our first child, and am totally confused with what benifits we may be able to get. I work full time (over 30 hours) and earn approx £18.000 before deductions . My partner is unable to work due to a disabillity but gets Incapacity benifit of £5532 per year. We have a mortgage and all the usual bills. i have compleated the online checks and dont seem to be eligible for working tax and only a small amount on child tax. I was just wondering if this seems corect as i have no idea ? Any help would be much appreciated as i am at a loss.
