Post subject: the £500 grant you are talking about is probably not something you would be entitled to if both of you are working, its a grant given to ppl on low or no incomes as far as im aware.
You should be entitled to child tax credits when baby is born, also child benefit and you may get help from the council with rent and council tax. the only thing is you cant apply for anything until the baby is born so you wouldn't necessarily know how much you would get until then. You will also get the health in pregnancy grant at about 26weeks which is a one off payment of about £190- thats is the tories dont get rid of it??!! _________________ My beautiful children are my life!
