CSA: Finding status of estranged daughter?

Hi all
The details are unimportant to the question, but I have a daughter living somewhere in England. I live in Scotland and pay CSA via an AOE Order
My daughter was recently 17 - and hopefully she's left school and gone on to do her A levels. If so, that's great, am happy to continue paying CSA
However, since I have no contact, and no idea where her and my ex wife live, how would I go about finding this out? (Whether she is working, unemployed, student etc) For all I know, she might have left school and got a job straight away - meaning she would be no longer eligible for CSA and I could instead start putting it into a fund for her
Any advice or pointers?
Thanks in advance

Ask the CSA to do a Child benefit check. If its still in payment then she is in full time education and CSA continues0

Yes it is, but be aware also that school leaving age is no longer 16 but 18.0
