There are tax allowances in Spain helping those with children, but
losing 4 lots of UK child benefit will make a big difference to the budget, surely?

Neptuno good point many people still try and claim CB when they move to Spain but that will be classed as benefit fraud

Child Benefit IS one of those exportable benefits if you move to an EEA country.

The OP would be wise to check withe the DWP about this as eligibility to receive child benefit in Spain depends on the circumstances

Absolute rubbish - please provide link.


You have to have a certain combination of circumstances to still get it - and even then you may not.
