Child Benefit Calculator

What is Child Benefit?

Child Benefit is a regular payment made by the UK government to individuals responsible for a child under 16, or under 20 if they are in approved education or training. It is designed to help with the costs of raising children. The benefit is generally paid every four weeks, but in some cases, it can be paid weekly.

How to Calculate Child Benefit?

The amount of Child Benefit you receive depends on the number of children you are claiming for. As of the 2024/25 tax year, the rates are as follows:

• For the first child: £25.60 per week.
• For each additional child: £16.95 per week.
