What is Child Tax Credit?

Child Tax Credit provides support for families and carers responsible for at least one child or young person and is paid in addition to any Child Benefit you might be receiving. And remember, you can claim Child Tax Credit even if you are not working.

If a child lives with you part-time, you may also be able to claim. For more information please check our Frequently Asked Questions section or give us a ring on 0845 300 3900.
