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.
No Child Benefit claim has been received from the person concerned. An application for Child Benefit can be made by submitting a completed application. Claim forms are available on gov.ie or from any local Department office.
I hope that this clarifies the matter for the deputy.
