My daughter has left full time education to work – when should the payments stop?

My daughter was in full time education studying A levels at 6th form until 4 oct 2013 – she left and started work on 14 oct 2013.

When should her dads maintenance payments have stopped – when she left education or when she started work = can you please advise

  1. The payments end when your daughter leaves education, you should have contacted child benefit and CSA the day education ends as per the CSA rules

  2. Nicola,

    Has your daughter taken all her exams?

    Your ChB payments will normally carry on from the date your child leaves education or training that counts for Child Benefit, until the week that includes the earliest of these dates:
    the last day of February
    31 May
    31 August
    30 November

    But if one of the following happens, your payments will stop straightaway:
    your child starts paid work for 24 hours a week or more
    your child gets certain benefits, such as Income Support or Employment and Support Allowance, or tax credits in their own right
    your child reaches the age of 20

    CSA may be paid in arrears, so may carry on slightly longer.

    A PWC does have a legal obligation to report such changes to the CSA & ChB offices.
