my daughter is 16 and she has been going to start an apprenticeship at a GP surgery

I claim full housing benefit and I have most of my council tax paid

I get disability premium for myself

I know I will loose my child tax credit and child tax credit for her but will I loose any of the above

Forgot to mention I also have a 12 year old

Advice needed

Thank you

    Hello @jmc1978 and a warm welcome to the community. 😊 That sounds like a great opportunity for your daughter.

    Do you claim either of the following benefits?

    • personal independence payment (PIP) - daily living component 
    • disability living allowance (DLA) - care component
