If she is still some months away from it then one of the benefits she could claim would be job seekers allowance, and it is possible she might be "sanctioned" - i.e. have her benefit reduced or stopped - for a period. This shoulod not apply to any other benefits she is entitled to, such as Housing or Council Tax Benefit, or Income Support if she is very near the birth date.
