Child Benefit is a monthly payment to the parents or guardians of children under 16 years of age. Child Benefit can also be claimed for children aged 16 and 17 if they are in full-time education or full-time training or have a disability and cannot support themselves.
An application from the person concerned has not been received. When an application is received, the claim details will be examined and a deciding officer will make a decision on entitlement or seek further information if necessary.
I trust this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
