    Part of the Furniture 10,000 Posts I've been Money Tipped! Name Dropper
    Child benefit for me stopped August after my eldest children turned 18. I certainly haven't been getting it for any longer than that. (eldest are 23 and 20 and I have 4 more children. One will be 18 in November and Child Benefit will stop for her next August)
    if the child continues in approved education or training it continues until the approved education or training finishes or on 20 th birthday , whichever is first

    When approved education or training ends

    When your child leaves approved education or training, payments will stop at the end of February, 31 May, 31 August or 30 November (whichever comes first).
  • He was 20 in June sheramber, and CMS haven't been able to advise payments til the end of the tax year. They have done now, thanks.
