I was about to apply for child benefit (first time mom, baby is 2 months old) and when I started reading about eligibility it confused me.

Hi all.. did anyone request work from home from office because of pregnancy related issues? Did you include a doctor’s note? Can you please tell what the note contained? My doctor’s note was apparently rejected because it was not detailed enough.

Hey girls, Just a tad confused! Since we’ve been receiving child benefit we’ve been moving it to a separate bank account as we realised we’d have to pay it back or a percentage of it back as we’re over the income cut off.
