Child benefit form for 16-19

[Twototwo15]

Has anyone had to fill in the form for child benefit entitlement for 16 - 19 year olds? The questions don’t seem to be geared towards anyone at a special needs school who is not on any particular course. Also when asked about other benefits, it doesn’t give PIPS as an option. I’m wondering if there is another form I’m missing for special needs children.

The form is just as relevant to those in SS. A course doesn’t necessarily mean a formal course like A levels. It could be a life skills course or one based on the sensory environment.

PIP isn’t mentioned because it is irrelevant to CB.

It asks what course they are doing or what they are studying and gives options, e.g. A levels, etc, none of them relevant. It also asks if they are getting any other benefits, yes or no, and lists options to choose, but PIPS is not one of the options. Once you’ve selected “yes” to benefits, it forces you to pick one of the options, none of them relevant, so I’m not sure how to complete it.

Or do I just put “no” to other benefits as PIPS isn’t listed?

PIP isn’t one of the relevant benefits so select no. It asks about other benefits to check DC is an eligible young person. You can request a paper copy to write on if none of the options apply. You can also call them.

Thanks for your help.
