Husband earns over 100k. Do we get 15hrs free funding?

Sorry I know a lot of people have asked this but I’m still confused.

My husband earns over 100k. I earn 30k.
our son will be 2 in Jan 2024, so come April 2024, will we receive 15hrs funding from the government? Then, if we are to have another child (not pregnant yet), by the time other child is born, when they start nursery, they too will get 15hrs?

Someone said you get nothing if one earns over 100k, but I thought EVERYONE gets 15??

it’s so irritating if you compare our situation to parents who both earn 90k each. I know we’re fortunate but with my husbands salary comes higher mortgage payments and we live and work in London.

anyway, I hope someone can answer this for me.

thank you so much

We both have similar salaries to your husband’s and wouldn’t even try and get free childcare. If you are unsure if you can afford another child, don’t do it.

Can your husband pay extra into his pension to get his overall salary down.

You don’t have higher mortgage payments because of your husband’s salary. You have them because this was the mortgage you got. Just saying.
