Change in custody

When a child's custody is transferred from one parent to the other, or shared between both parents, the amount of Family Allowance paid for the child will be affected.

Be sure to notify us quickly of any change in the child's custody so that the financial assistance for the child is paid to the person or persons responsible for the child.
