    Lenders now do a Covid Risk Assessment just before drawdown and you need to show evidence of income as in a recent payslip (within 1 month) and provide 3 months recent current account statements.

    Will your wife be getting paid when on maternity leave if so she just submits her payslip together with a letter from her employer stating the date she is due to return from Maternity leave. If not getting paid you also need to submit letter from employer. If you have baby before drawdown then your net disposable income will change so a married couple need to have €2550 left over per month after stressed mortgage repayments and any other deductions.
    If you're with a broker, contact the broker who will do the calculations for you.

    That's ok as when you applied you only had 1 dependent and you're not asked on the application form re maternity leave. It will now crop up when you have to send in recent payslips and bank statements and will probably need to get a letter from employer stating expected date return to work.
