I have PSS residence card and I’m wondering if I can get any maternity allowance/benefit or it will prevent me to get SS naturalisation in the future?

Claiming benefits and allowances you are entitled to is not an issue for naturalisation. I believe you will be able to claim maternity. This link may help:

There is no Surinder Singh route to naturalisation, it's the same for all backgrounds.

Thanks for your answer. You can ignore Surinder Singh, I actually wrote short for Settlement Scheme but it got automatically and wrongly converted to Surinder Singh by this forum for some reason.
