Child Trust Fund

Clarewilli

My daughter was born March 2003, so I believe she has a child trust fund. We are no longer resident in the UK and have been told she cannot claim her trust fund. Please can you confirm this is true. Also she has never had a NI number so would she need to apply for it to claim it if that is possible. Many Thanks in advance

The 'find' tool isn't going to be a lot of help to the OP as the 'child' is over 18, but has no NI number...

Use the postal application and include note to explain circumstances?

Hmm, yes fair enough, I suppose that's a possible route. Although as it's no doubt going to be a manual process through HMRC, I wouldn't be holding my breath on a response this year...
