You're thinking of child tax credits. Everyone gets child benefit. UC has replaced tax credits but i think if you were already on tax credits it doesn't change , also each area is different ( i think)Thought child benefit been scrapped for universal credit? I know nearly all benefits are now under UC and that once you have more than two kids born after April 2016/17 then you don’t get paid for them unless you show prove your been you know . Can’t see her getting pregnant just to not get a job to then end up struggling, I know a number of people in the tit because of it
I work for my local council not on the benefits team but sometimes liase with them so pick bits up , though i may be wrong....
