Wonder if you good and clever people can help.
I've been self employed last 3 years but after the clinic where i work from found out i'm pregnant...they've taken on another therapist in my line of work who is now basically pinching my clients. The woman who runs the place i think was worried I would be leaving so took another therapist on 'just in' case'. So i have resigned and intend to give up my self employed job, from October I can claim maternity allowance...but wondered what can I claim in the time being as unemployed, I'm only a couple of months pregnant.
What should I do, I get tax credits at mo based on an income of 6K.....

Not an expert but I would think you would claim JSA while you try and find another job?0

You can tell a lot about a woman by her hands..........for instance, if they are placed around your throat, she's probably slightly upset.

If you are only a couple of months pregnant then look around for another job asap to tide you over, I dont think you will get JSA as you gave up your job so could be santioned (think its 26 weeks)0
