Hi, am a little worried about this so said I would ask.
I am a local authority worker on low salary. 35900appx.
Am married with one child (six months old)
My wife worked since she was 19, she is now 29. She was let go from her job along with all her colleagues when she was 5 months pregnant. She received her maternity benefit until January 2012. She is currently drawing her stamps. 180 a week or so. They will finish next January. She is struggling as it is.
Once they are up, will she likely qualify for some form of benefit/assistance?
We pay 800pm rent, i pay 400 month loan to CU.
My salary gives me appx 550 a week take home of which 100 is gone straight away to CU and i pay 200 a month for car payments also aswell as rent, bills, food etc.
She currently is a stay at home mum, our little boy is now 6 months old.
I presume surely she wont be left penniless come January will she? I am on 36k, not exactly big money. Will I be expected to foot everything come January?
Thanks
