Hi, has anyone successfully continued to claim 30 free hours and tax free childcare when they claimed maternity allowance due to being self employed.
I would really like some reassurance on this as the info on the direct gov website is vague when it comes to this. I am self employed at the moment and plan to claim maternity allowance (rather than maternity pay which is for the employed) in May and I want my 3 year old to remain in nursery for his 30 "free" hours along with using the tax free childcare account.
Please tell me someone has done this before?
Thanks!
