MATB1

I handed in my MATB1 form today, my work maternity policy states I need to send the MATB1 15 weeks before the due date, but I have just checked and it’s actually 13 weeks before the due date. Do you think this will affect anything? My appointment with my midwife was only yesterday and I didn’t realise

I highly doubt they’ll make a problem over 2 weeks. I gave mine late too but had told my boss already.

Doesn’t matter you can also claim it after baby is born so

My work said that I just needed to declare my maternity status by 15 weeks before. The matb1 form only needs to be given in latest a few weeks before you’re due to finish. Some workplaces might smush the two deadlines together for ease though, as ‘proof’ but you should be fine
