Afternoon all,
I've just been onto the entitled to website to see what me & my partner will be entitled to in a few months time when bubs arrives and its told me that we will be entitled to £83.50 per week in benefits :eek: This is on top of my partners wage of £250.00 approx per week.
The breakdown its given me is-
£18.10 child benefit
£9.96 tax credit
£56.21 child tax credit
£8.32 council tax
£47.12 housing benefit
Is that right? Thats a heck of a lot of money for a week
Any help appreciated... Thanks

entitledto.co.uk has always been bang-on correct for me and to the penny!0

It seemed to work out right when I did it.
Not sure about the council tax and housing benefit though, as I take home at lot less than £250.00 per week and don't qualify for either.0 -

My rent is only £385 pcm which is reasonably affordable anyway so I don't think we'd qualify for either housing benefit or council tax benefit...
Thanks for your replies :beer:0
