Where to get a professional benefits advice?

Mishomeister

I hav been to council and to Citizens Advice Bureau with the first doing everything to get rid of me asap and the latter just being inexperienced(CAB Adviser) and therefore uncnowledgable and not helful.

The situation:

We are expecting our first child. I am an EEA national who have lived in the UK for 8 years. I am working full time.
My wife is a non EU citizen who has a Card of a Familty Member of an EEA national. She has lived in the UK for 1 year and 7 months

It appears that all the online benefits calculators only would work for British Citizens whilst our situation is more complex.

I really need to find out somewhere what our entitlement would be for any benefits.

I would appreciate if anyone could direct me to any advisor(either free or the one that charges a fee) who would be experienced in the benefits system and could give us qualified advice in our situation.


Thanks in advance

We have a Welfare Rights Advice office nearbt which is a little similar to the Cab, they help people to complete claim forms and explain what you should be entitled to.
Google to see if they have an office near to you.
