End of maternity leave and childcare funding

2 replies

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this as can’t find much info online

My maternity leave is due to end 3rd of August, and we are relocating across the country around early/mid August. I’m activity looking for work to start ideally in September so it gives me chances to settle the kids in.

Does anyone know how it works in terms of their funding? Is there a grace period where I have so many days to find a job before I’m not eligible for the funding? My children will be almost 4 and 1.

I’d probably be unemployed for a month between the end of my mat leave and moving/finding a new job.

any advice would be appreciated Grin

I think it will all depend on timing. When do you have to reconfirm your eligibility code?

So I have to reconfirm between 16th July and August 12th for my 3yo. I haven’t applied for my baby yet

Does it matter when I apply for her? Between the house move etc my head is fried
