MILLIONS households across the country are entitled to child benefit payments to help them with childcare costs.
Last year, 7.74 million families were claiming Child Benefit, a fall of roughly 95,000 when compared to the year before.
Most parents in the UK can claim Child Benefit but there are still certain eligibility rules.
You can claim if you’re responsible for a child who is under 16 or under 20 and in approved education or training.
Only one person in the household can get child benefit, but there is no limit to how many children you can claim for.
