Maternity Allowance Q
Hi ladies! Anyone with experience with MA able to let me know how long they waited after sending the second form back after they have finished work?
I received the letter confirming how much I would be paid per week, and within that was a form to send back once I had stopped working which I sent back just over a week ago.
Will I receive another letter confirming the date/frequency I’ll be paid or will it just arrive in my bank account when they decide?
Hope that makes sense! Thanks in advance for any advice 🫶🏼

@Amy thank you! I’ll give it a couple more days before thinking about spending a decade on hold on the phone then 😂
This is what I was thinking I've got the second forms filled in all ready to send back. I've finished work but technically I'm using 2 weeks holiday so don't need my allowance to start until 13th Feb(the day I will send it back) I was hoping they would back date it as obviously they won't recieve it straight away. Or can I send it back now even though I technically not on maternity leave yet?
I sent mine first class and got a text message in 2 days saying recieved, 5 days later a text saying MA had been accepted, then a letter 3 days after that.. I applied in January

Hey, mine came back about 7 working days later and they back dated the pay back to the day I wanted it to start from and then the next payment was two weeks later. Roughly x
