UIF MATERNITY LEAVE BENEFITS!
Good Day I am on maternity Leave! My Maternity UIF has been paid terribly. I have no money and behind on payments due to the UIF. I have no money for formula (cant breastfeed no milk) and have exceeded my borrowing of money. I have no car, no support structure to lean on right now. My new born is only 3months and his formula is almost finished. I'm so stressed and as new first time mother going on maternity leave has been an absolute stress. This is suppose to be happy time and all about the new born. I'm so stressed where I'm having live hand to mouth right now and no money. The UIF is keeping back two payments in status " payment reserved" i need help and they are not listening to me. This formula finishes what next the child of 3months must go hungry? this not good for a new born. Does my new born need to starve to death before payment is received? if that had to happen I will take the UIF to court. I should not be in the position nor should any other mother. How are other mothers coping on the maternity UIF during their maternity leave. Pathetic service!! Thanks UIF for making this time what should have been a happy time a stressful time.
