help? child benefit etc..

[AnnabelsMummy]

i really need help, annie is 6 weeks, and i have no idea how to do the child benefit how do i sort it out - this might seem like a stupid question but i asked my HV and she said it tells you in your bounty pack (which i never got and she won't give me one).. and i could really do with the money at the rate she's growing lol!!

you should have got given a bounty pack at the hospital which has the forms in but seeing as u didnt get given one

u will need to send in your lo birth certificate with it aswell

hope this helps

they only backdate for 3 months so you will need to move fast hun to get everything you are entitled to!

and tax credits too then you should get healthy start vouchers too
