Child benefit post 16 and younger sibling

[TheSweetestHalleluja]

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone knows whether it's normal that once your eldest child stops getting child benefit, does the next sibling down get the higher rate £24 per week?

Yes, the eldest eligible child gets the higher rate. Is your 16 year old out of full-time education now? I know my eldest still got it until 18 as they were in 6th form full-time.

Yes and it should happen automatically.

Perfect, thanks.
