    Im employed full time and my wife stays at home and looks after our little boy, we are expecting another child novermber the 10th. We have been awared CTC of ??10.50 a week for our little boy. this works out at exactly ??546 a year when calculated from APRIL 2009 to APRIL 2010. I believe this is the cut off for the sure start maternity grant. My question is a basic one, are we entitled to the grant or not and if so, who is not entitled to the grant as i earn quite a high income and i dont think the CTC we have been awarded could be any lower, This means that anyone who claims CTC upto the cutoff point (which i believe is around 60k per year) should be entitled. Im hoping someone in a similar situation could answer my question. Also should i get rejected is it worth re applying when our second child is due as our CTC award is likely to go up.

    Hi we are in a similar situation except we both work but we get the same amount of tax credit as you and your partner. I am going to apply for the sure start mat grant after the baby is born (our 2nd baby) as you have 3 months from birth date to apply and tax credits go up when you have a baby under 1 (think it will be smae for you, it only goes up ??10 a week) x
