Hello,
My daughter has just turned 2 but I am panicking that we won't receive 30 hours free childcare when she turns 3
I've looked at the guidance but I'm not sure on how they calculate income.
My partner earns over £142 a week but I'm not sure if I do
My overall monthly pay is £577
My take home each month is £547 (This figure includes a £20 monthly bonus for first-aid)
I pay into my pension scheme and this is £30 a month.
My questions:
- Do I earn over £142 a week if part of my salary is the monthly first aid bonus?
- Is my pension counted as what I 'earn' each week?
- Would we qualify for 30 hours with my take home pay of £547?
EDIT: I forgot to add. I will be on maternity leave when she turns 3 (12 weeks pregnant at the moment, yay!). How does this impact things etc?
