    Hi! I’m hoping to apply for the WFP as my husband has recently become unemployed :( I’m working part time after returning from maternity leave earlier this year (some unpaid leave after mat leave) Iv heard the WFP is only reviewed on a yearly basis. On the form it requests the year to date income, my question is are we better to wait to apply in January as he won’t have any income to take into account for 2023 (not claiming any benefits) or if I apply now will they take into consideration he is now unemployed or will they go by what he has previously earned for 2022

    Thanks in advance!
