Maternity universal credit?

[3istheMagicNumberr]

Just wondering if anybody knows much about this?
I'm on maternity leave and recently claimed universal credit after dropping to smp and my partner leaving. I don't find out about any money for 5 weeks. Has anybody else been in this position or does anybody have an idea how much I might get?
The job centre said it doesn't show them what I'm entitled to.

Hi op ,
I'll explain what I know from my own experience. So UC is made up of a personal allowance, housing element (amount of rent you pay pcm) and child element. You are given a total award.

For anything you earn you will have 63p taken off of that total with each £1 in your wage packet.

So sat your UC award is £1600 and your earnings or so are £560. Your calculations will be £560 x .63p = ??? And that amount wil be taken off of your £1600 award.

You wil need to apply for council tax benefit and child benefit separately.

I hope that all makes sense.

Sorry I'm feeding the baby as I type.

You can do an online calculator, google entitled 2

Thanks for that 👍

Used the online calculator but that asked about maintenance payments when my application never asked that?
Tried with maintenance which was £61 per week and without shows £106 per week...quite a difference.
Suppose I'll just have to wait and see
