I've done a calculation to see if it's viable to divorce and still be able to provide for the DC.
Entitled to suggests I'd get up to 1k a month in CB, and housing benefit on a salary of 40k. None of us is disabled etc.
Does that seem correct? It seems wild that I'd be eligible for so much with just 2 children.
