Help with child tax/benefits

smeggy

Hiya. 

So basically I’ll try and not confuse you, basically I have 1 biological child and 2 step and my 2 step kids live with us. We get child tax/child benefit for them. Currently pregnant with twins, how will money work do the twins need to be in my name to get the benefits as he has 2 kids already. I’m so confused on how the system works nowadays can someone help me please?

Given that as a couple you already get support for three children you will not get any extra money for two more children other than Child Benefit.

I don't think you can get  money for more than 3 children other than the CB as mentioned above so Tax Credits is irrelevant.
