maternity pay finishing need help!!!!!

[millie0403]

Hi there everyone, i was wondering whether anyone could help me, my maternity pay is due to finish very soon and i dont think i am going to return to work due to the shop not taking alot of money and are looking to close in the near furture, my partner is self employed and doesnt have much work at the moment so we are claiming working tax credit, and child tax credit, i was just wondering what will happen when my maternity money stops??

If your circumstances change significantly, it's best to contact the Tax Credit people and tell them as soon as possible.

if you are SE it is very difficult to budget, my DH is SE and our income fluctuates massively. You are not allowed to calim benefit even if you have no work (as we found out) You may get more tax credits though
