Hi sorry if the title doesnt explain what im asking but i couldnt think of anything else to explain it, also notsure if posting in right section so apoligies if im not.
Am asking this question on behalf my sister, she is on mat leave and obviously struggling with a lot less money so was wondering apart from mat pay is she entitled to anything else? does the council tax(single person working discount) come into affect here or is she technically still earning? and can they claim any sort of working tax credits while on maternitey leave finally she is also in a panic as to how she goes about getting child benefit: how do you claim for that? thanx in advance for any help
