Updated: Removed Dogs Trust Freedom Project form list of third party professionals.
You will not be paid an extra amount of Child Tax Credit, Income Support or Universal Credit for more than 2 children, unless the children were born before 6 April 2017 or exceptions apply.
One of those exceptions applies if:
- your child was conceived as a result of a non-consensual sexual act (including rape), or
- you were in a controlling or coercive relationship with the other parent of the child at the time of the conception
To apply for an extra amount for that child, fill in this form with the help of a:
- healthcare professional
- specialist support worker from an approved organisation listed on this page
- registered social worker
Use the separate form for Northern Ireland if you live there.
