Re: very urgent please help

You are entitled to maintenance as per "standard of living" of your husband at the time of separation.

Your "capacity or eligibility to work" is not the issue. Since you are having a one year old baby, caring for the child may be a full time job.

In law your present status is important and if you are unemployed you are eligible for maintenance. If employed and earning your status at husband's place will be considered and proportionate maintenance will be awarded.Moreover he is liable for maintaining the child.
