Hi all
I hope you are all well I'm after some advice if anyone would be able to help please but was not sure whether this should be in finances or relationship threads?
I am anticipating the end of my 11 year relationship within the next few months as I can feel its coming to ahead (after DMV, Emotional abuse, Love bombing and lies/ lack of consideration etc) and need some information on what I can do when it comes to financial support.
I work 30hours a week and take home a net pay of £1656 a month and have 1 child - who has roughly £150 pounds worth of creche fees per month on average.
I will receive roughly £250pm child maintenance
£104 child benefit
I have a mortgaged house and am in no debt with priority bills and am not looking to pay only interest on my mortgage and will continue as I am paying for it per month (repayment)
I' m not married but my soon to be exs parents do pay me £150 a month for creche costs which will stop once we finish as I couldn't expect them to keep paying for it
I have used the entitled to website and not sure how accurate it is if I'm honest and would just like some help on what I can receive once we do in fact split as I need to make sure I'm budgeting correctly for me and my daughter.
The relationship has been at an "end" for a long while and as those of you who have been there before something just keeps you in it and I'm not sure if its the financial pull or trauma bonding, but I just need to prepare - I know its a rough time for my daughter when it comes to us thinking of separating as its around Xmas but I have gone too long thinking it will improve with someone who uses me as an after thought with everything so I need to make plans.
I know this post is a bit long winded but if anyone would be able to possibly help me with working out what I may be entitled to then it will allow for me to plan more accurately
I appreciate your time reading this and any help I can get from this site, and support I shall happily receive
Yours truly
