I am terrified with the news I've received.
I am 29 weeks pregnant and due to go on maternity leave on 17th April, by then I'll be 37 weeks...
Rang ACAS for some advice and they've said I need to bring my SMP leave date forward before they give me a date of when the redundancy process will start in order to my be affected.
Yet if I go this early, I'll only receive 90% of my salary for the first 6 weeks then SMP £136 a week. I will be completely dependent on tax credits yet cannot claim until little ones here. And yet if I take the risk of staying at work any longer and they start the process, then all I will et is Maternity Allowance from the Job Centre and will not qualify for tax credits...
I will be a single parent so my income is the only thing we will have.
Any advice would be much appreciated
