HMRC have launched a podcast covering the new Health in Pregnancy Grant. The podcast covers everything you need to know about the new £190 Health in Pregnancy Grant for mums-to-be. You can listen to all HMRC podcasts on the HMRC website at http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/podcasts/index.htm. The one-off payment is intended to help pregnant mums stay fit and healthy in the run up to the birth, and help meet some of the costs as the big day approaches. The money can be claimed from the 25th week of pregnancy, after receiving health advice from a midwife or other health professional. You'll be given a claim form to sign and send off, which you must do within 31 days. When your claim is approved, the money is paid directly into your bank or building society account. Women who apply in the first three months of the year will get the cash in April.
