A person is also classed as a qualifying young person, and will still be treated as a member of the customer바카라 사이트™s family where they are

  • under the age of 18 and have registered with a qualifying body within 20 weeks of leaving full-time education or approved training
    and
  • we are notified within three months of the date they left full-time education or approved training
    and
    • they aren바카라 사이트™t receiving IS, JSA(IB), ESA(IR) or tax credits in their own right
    • they aren바카라 사이트™t normally engaged in remunerative work for 24 hours or more weekly.

Note: Young persons receiving approved training couldn바카라 사이트™t qualify before 6 April 2006.

Note: The approved training scheme doesn바카라 사이트™t have to result in a named qualification.

Note: Young persons enrolled in full-time non-advanced education or approved training before their nineteenth birthday (even if they only start the course or training after their nineteenth birthday) couldn바카라 사이트™t qualify before 16 August 2007.

Note: The customer is no longer responsible for a young person who is paid Incapacity Benefit or contribution-based Employment and Support Allowance in their own right.

Note: From 1 September 2008, a customer can바카라 사이트™t be treated as being responsible for a young person and won바카라 사이트™t be entitled to CTC for them if

  • the young person becomes part of a couple and their partner isn바카라 사이트™t in full-time non-advanced education or approved training
  • the young person is the customer바카라 사이트™s partner.
    Note: This change won바카라 사이트™t affect customers receiving CTC for a young person where that young person was living with a partner on 31 August 2008.
