Hi all,
I need your advice on benefits when a disabled child turns 16.
My DD is in a full time boarding school (52 weeks).she is going to live there until the age of 19TH.
She recently turned 16, I received her NI number.
I am receiving part of her DLA which is mobility £20 p/with.
I am getting child benefit and child tex credit for her.
I need to know what benefit will stopped and what can be applied for 16 yrs old disabled.
Also she is not able to manage her affairs because of her disability so I am responsible for all her affairs.
I am also responsible for providing pocket money and her shopping needs etc.
Please provide me as much info as you can.
