My daughter will be 16 later this year. What can you add to my list of things to consider, relating to her finances:
- 16-17 Railcard (or 16-25 railcard?
- stop child benefit
- get NI number
- make sure her work deducts tax and NI and pension contributions
-ISA (junior or adult?)
- 16-17 Railcard (or 16-25 railcard?
- stop child benefit
- get NI number
- make sure her work deducts tax and NI and pension contributions
-ISA (junior or adult?)

Does she earn more than the single person's allowance.The person who has not made a mistake, has made nothing0 -
16-17 railcard is better. 50% off, no restrictions on time it can be used (16-25 use before 10am and you have to pay min £12 fare) and you can also buy season tickets with the discount.
Child benefit office will write to you and ask what she is doing. NI usually gets sent automatically (just chase if not appeared by birthday)
Isn't she PAYE, they should sort that.
No idea about Isas
If there's a boyfriend on the scene (or even if you think she'll become sexually active) have a conversation about getting and using reliable contraception.0 -
