My daughter has just found out she is pregnant. She is 23 years of age, works full time, lives where she works (ABDO college) and is very independent. Unfortunately her boyfriend has walked away from her and he doesn't want to be involved.
What I need help with is that she can't claim working tax credit as she is not 25 years of age. She may not get any child maintenance. And she will be on £135 per week maternity benefit when she has baby and maybe a few weeks before she is due. How can she possibly pay her bills on £135 per week??? I am so concerned as she is already in financial difficulty. Any benefit advice is greatly appreciated.
