you get more child benefit if that helps

Yes you should do but it depends on your total income.

Bloodandchatkins · 10/10/2008 20:48

Yeah we did but yes it depends on your income.

Hmmm not sure, you get an extra £10 per week for the first year. If you are both working it may mean that you will be eligible to claim childcare costs.

Have you looked at the "entitled to" website and tried putting you info in with an extra child?

MadamAnt · 10/10/2008 20:56

Yes, but I'm too pished tired to compare it to the current 2-child figure.

I doubt you would get more on that income, sorry other than the extra £545 a year for having a baby under 1.

HappyMummyOfOne · 11/10/2008 11:01

Daisy's right, other than the baby element it wont increase on that income regardless of the number of children.

DaisySteiner · 11/10/2008 12:19

Actually you might get more on that income if you have LOADS of kids - like 5 or 6.
