👉 Child Benefit in the context of Income Support

Income Support was an income-related benefit in the United Kingdom for some people who are on a low income, but had a reason for not actively seeking work. Claimants of Income Support could be entitled to certain other benefits, for example, Housing Benefit, Council Tax Reduction, Child Benefit, Carer's Allowance, Child Tax Credit and help with health costs. A person with capital over £16,000 could not get Income Support, and savings over £6,000 affected how much Income Support can be received. Claimants had to be between 16 and Pension Credit age, work fewer than 16 hours a week, and have a reason why they were not actively seeking work (caring for a child under 5 years old or someone who receives a specified disability benefit).
