    Is child maintenance taken into account when they calculate any benefits?

    Beanie - a tankard with an engraving on it? Some cufflinks or maybe a favourite book of his from his childhood?

    Cheers Claire.

    Yes on some it is - I think they take into account anything over £20 a week on things like HB/CTB.
