I know there's been a few threads about maternity allowance, but iv got a few questions.
I was a fulltime nursing student - while working with an agency at a local hospital as a nursing assistant. I have worked way over the criteria to get the highest payment in the 66 week test period over the 13 weeks (some weeks coming away with £300). I have been employed by the NHS for 4 years, however in the 66 week test period i did not work 26 full weeks? When i phoned them they said as long as i had been employed for more than 66 weeks and have the 13 week test period i will be eligible. However, i know how easy it is for them to turn around and say no. If i dont get this maternity allowance i am absolutely screwed!
Has anyone ever been rejected? also how long did it take for them to get back to you?
