Hi All,
After 7 months out of work my wife managed to get a contract to work for 2 days a week for a period of 4 months up to the end of April. She also gets social welfare for the other 3 days. She is due to give birth on June 4 but when she gave the form in to the employer to fill out part 4 they said that because she will not be returning to the job after her maternity leave then what she needs to do is wait for the P45 and submit the form then leaving the Employer section blank.
Can anyone confirm whether or not this is the correct way to go about getting Maternity benefit in these circumstances?
