    You should get the details sent to you shortly after you have both applied for and received the first child benefit payment. I'm not sure how long "shortly after" is.

    Our son was born in August this year, we received the CTF voucher a couple of weeks after we applied for child benefits.

    We didn't get the voucher when our daughter was born in January 2007 though so I went to this website and requested a replacement:

    The new voucher arrived a couple of weeks later and we could open the CTF account with it with no problems.
