It works on the basis that one person will always have a greater share of responsibility than another.</p><p> </p><p>Where parents separate, it is possible for them to jointly agree who should receive Child Benefit and CTC and for which child. Where parents cannot agree who should receive Child Benefit and CTC and make rival claims, the decision about who is entitled to such support is taken by HM Revenue &amp; Customs (HMRC). HMRC considers all the facts in relation to each parent’s responsibility for the child, based on the information provided by both parents.</p> answering member constituency South West Norfolk answering member printed Elizabeth Truss grouped question UIN 121139 question first answered 11/01/2018 14:11:29 answering member 4097 label Biography information for Elizabeth Truss
