For in-company training that has begun, the training contract is usually suitable evidence; for school-based training, the Family Benefits Office may request a certificate from the school. Someone still looking for a training place can provide evidence of applications or registration as seeking a training place. For further training after a first qualification, the Family Benefits Office also checks whether and to what extent the person is employed. Have your child benefit reference number ready and submit further evidence if the Family Benefits Office requests it. Observe the deadline in its letter. Subject to certain conditions, child benefit may be paid for a child in training until their 25th birthday.
