    Assuming your partner claims DLA or PIP then they will qualify and janer1967 has said, they will get it by the end of December (sometimes it’s paid on top of your normal payment). You will not qualify based on Child Benefit, you must be claiming a disability benefit yourself or be claiming State Pension. If any children are disabled they will qualify too.

    Claiming child benefit doesn't entitle you to the £10 Christmas bonus. You need to be claiming one of the benefits listed here. https://www.gov.uk/christmas-bonus/eligibility
    If you do claim one of those then it can be paid anytime in December, as Janer advised.
