 ??? how is that relevant to what i posted and you quoted and replied to?Love many, trust few, learn to paddle your own canoe.
 “Don’t have children if you can’t afford them” is the “Let them eat cake” of the 21st century. It doesn’t matter how children got here, they need and deserve to be fed.0

 Do you have younger children at home? If not, you should not still be receiving CB and CTC.
 If you are receiving them and haven't notified the authorities, you are risking being charged with fraud.0

 Do you think they want this information so they can pass it over to child benefit?
 your CTB has been stopped because you have a son at uni who you should not be getting CB or CTC (if you were)for
