I am in a very difficult siltation and not sure if it is a unique one. My husband is moving from Ireland Rep to London as relocation from employer in few weeks. I am also working but we have now found out that I am pregnant and due in October. It is a fairly new job for me so I will not be entitled for maternity benefit from my employer but I am eligible for maternity pay for six months from state.
If I move to UK with my husband, I will not be able to claim this maternity pay from UK. If I stay, I will struggle to look after children to be on my own.
As I have not worked in UK, I cannot claim maternity benefit but is there a way I can transfer my benefit from Ireland to UK?
