I just looked on the HRMC website. So I assume they work it out on your earnings per year? I should fall under £40k this year as I'll be going off in December. How does it get paid to you? Straight into the bank account? Is it also taxable?

Apparently you'll fill in forms and send them off and they'll confirm what you're entitled to. If you're under 40k you should get it. Are you including your Oh wages? They can count towards what you get/don't get. I presume it's paid into your bank but don't think its taxable x

I'm not sure, if he is on the birth certificate do I have to? We should still fall under the joint amount (just) I guess I should as I'm sure they will find out if he lives here even though he isn't registered here.

If you know who the father is and he is with you when you register the birth then yes his name should be on the birth certificate. To not declare you are part of a couple for benefits is benefit fraud.

Yeah even if he's not on the birth certificate you must declare your relationship, otherwise it's benefit fraud x

O be careful with all that, my cousin got evicted from her council house for being a silly girl and not declaring her relationship!

 

[newbie1984]

I see don't worry im not up for being a benefit fraud I just wasn't sure what you had to do!

 

[Sarah85]

Lol sorry I wasn't implying that one bit just saw how innocently my cousin was she didn't go out to be a fraud her boyfriend was staying there more than 4 nights a week they class that as living together apparently, I have no idea lol so think these things r easily done maybe.
