Thanks, I thought if the apprentiship was a paid one, then I would lose benefits.
Maybe I should just call my own council/tax credits and ask.
Thought you were only talking about HB and CT support.
The rules are different for child benefit and child tax credits. It will depend on the kind of apprenticeship that he takes on.
You will need to inform all benefits departments about the change of circumstances so child benefit, tax credits, and the council.
Make sure you know exactly the kind of apprenticeship that your son is doing.0 -
