Hi guys. im pregnant with baby no1 due may 2020. I just thought i would look at a employers SMP calculator to see if i am eligable for SMP. Because i have been so ill with HG in pregnancy and hospitalised twice i now dont qualify for SMP. £117.93 average earnings (needs to be £118). This makes me really nervous. How easy is it to claim MA? I have worked same company since April 2017. Looking at the MA & my test period i can submit 4 wage slips (im paid monthly). wage slips i could submit are £619, £555, £524 and £524. Will the government think this is odd since these are above £118 per week yet i cant get SMP so will refuse the claim? im just very nervous of not getting a penny.
