I am a recent graduate and a mother of one. I have been working part time for the past 4 years to be able to go back to college and pay the mortagage(over 1000per mo) and childcare(485 per mo).
Due to the fact that I haven`t been able to find a job yet I am still working part time in a shop (weekends and late nights) usually between 8-16 hours getting around 700-850 per mo.
The childcare expenses are gone as my child doesn`t attend afterschool care due to the fact that I am able to collect and drop her to school and mind/help her with homework.
My husband works full time and gets 34-35K after taxes.
My question is am I entitled to claim any social welfare as I am looking for a full time job in the area I was trained after 4 years of college as I intended to have my part time job to pay my way through college only?(I know I am lucky to have it believe me)
The second questions: Are we entitled for a GP card at least as the bills for going to GP with my littlle one are very high this year.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance for taking time to reply.
