Hi i was just looking for some advice
I am expecting my first baby next month and had applied for the sure start maternity grant, i needed my midwife to sign it for me but she was off sick so a cover midwife iv never met signed it instead. I had told them i needed it signed and ready to pick up urgently as they make you wait until after your universal credit payment to recieve the grant, the midwife took the form away with her and told me she signed and posted it. Two weeks passed and id had no confirmation of them having my application so tried to get hold of midwife to make sure it was defo posted.. a week later she gets in touch and says shes been on days off and that it was left at my dr suggery for me to pick up! So after being messed around for 3 weeks i was looking over the form and see that shes made a mistake and put that im due 2 babies not one! What im wondering is should i just send it and pretend i never noticed as having to chase them about again to sign a new one will mean i wont get the grant on time with my universal credit, this would mean the baby is born and wont have a pram or car seat to even get home until shes about a month old.. help :s
