Hello all, I have just gone on maternity leave. I am currently registered as self employed - been s/e since Oct 2009.

I got a letter from the maternity benefit office saying I would get 270 a week based on the relevant tax year 2008 (when i was employed and earning quite a bit).

However, the first payment has gone in and it is only 225...does anyone know why this is?? I was expecting the max payment but only getting the min payment....

Can anyone suggest why this might be or is it an error?
