Is it for me?
If you need help with the cost of buying essential items for a new baby, this grant could help you.
You must be receiving:
Income Support
income-based Jobseeker's Allowance
CHILD TAX CREDIT AT A RATE HIGHER THAN THE FAMILY ELEMENT
extra Working Tax Credit relating to a disability, or
Pension Credit.
You must claim from 11 weeks before the week your baby is due, until 3 months after the baby is born.
how would you know if the claim is higher - and this wouldnt be claimed until after the birth would it?
