To determine whether you are entitled to a higher amount of child benefit, we assess the situation on the first day of each quarter. The quarters start on 1 January, 1 April, 1 July and 1 October. Child benefit is paid on a quarterly basis.
If your child turned 6 or 12 after 1 July 2025, you will get the higher amount starting from the 4th quarter. Child benefit is always paid after the end of a quarter. You will therefore get the higher amount at the start of January 2026.
