Child Benefit Whilst Stuck in the U.K.

Yes you can. Haven't checked recently, but you could claim as soon as you arrive in UK (same as for uprating your state pension while on holiday in the UK). It may take a while to get approved. It can be back dated for up to 3 months maximum.

Not sure what you are smoking, but if those kids don't live in UK and or EEA they get nothing. 

 

Also you cannot compare it as your not living in the UK right now.. why would you have right for child benefits if you don't live there.

What country are you describing , if its the UK then children of (non EU) immigrants do not qualify for benefit if domiciled outside.

Welcome to the "democratic" world. Thanks European Union.

Why would you get child support if you're not even living officially in your own country?

Wouldnt it be easier just to go into the local Job/U.C  center and ask them in there ?

Currently closed due to Covid, I have called the helpline and they have advised me to complete the application form.

The only bit of it that is EU law is that someone from the EU gets treated the same as someone from the UK if living in the UK.

The child benefit part is entirely UK law.

And personally, I was able to claim tax allowances for having children, that were living in Thailand, when I worked in Japan, AND when I worked in Hong Kong, but not when I work in the UK - because of UK rules - nothing to do with the EU.
