Hello! Just wondering which sites people use to calculate their benefits. I’m due to go off on maternity in December I have used the turn2us calculator and it’s given me a largely different figure to one I used called gingerbread and I actually rang them and spoke with someone who gave me a different figure to what I got using the online Gingerbread calculator.
I’m wanting to move house I currently live in a 1 bed tiny house so I want to ensure that I can afford my rent and bills on maternity pay and whatever benefits I get on top of that but also the switch to universal credit is confusing me because surely I won’t be able to claim income support it will be universal credit.
I am currently working full time and am planning on returning to work part time
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks
