SMP / Maternity Allowance

Advice please-

There’s 13 weeks at the end of my maternity leave where I would not be receiving pay or SMP. Can I apply for Maternity Allowance for these 13 weeks if I choose to stay off for them?

Thanks

No
You have either SMP or MA, you dont get both. MA is for when you dont qualify for SMP.

No, the last 13 weeks are usually completely unpaid
