Yep DS is now 9 weeks old and ive already got a few payments for him
at a guess (none of my work buds online at the moment) i'd say it's just if you're close to the limit it might be better to NOT claim until baby is 6months old so that you can confirm income for that time frame and get it then, rather than getting it early and being overpaid as you'd have to pay it back... you have up to 12 months after baby arrives now to claim it.
