I've been trying to ring around but taking ages to get any answer so asking here instead.

Last year I moved out a few weeks to live at my mums. I claimed child tax credits and CB I think (h had always had the CB in his name but had it stopped as he earns over 50k)

Anyway, I stopped everything again after moving back in and now decided to move out definitely for good.

Will I need to restart a whole new claim or will they still have us on record?

For CB it's on his name, do I have to be claiming this before I get any tax credits?

Definitely get the child benefit in your name. You will struggle to get other benefits or use the CMS without it.
