The average CTF is valued at more than £2,000 meaning there is about £600million in total left untouched in the funds. The oldest recipients began turning 18 in September last year and can now claim their cash.

Who gets Child Trust Fund?

A Child Trust Fund is a long-term tax-free savings account for children born between 1 September 2002 and 2 January 2011. Find a Child Trust Fund as a parent or if you are over 16. The Child Trust Fund scheme closed in 2011. You can apply for a Junior ISA instead.

When did the Child Trust Fund start?

Child Trust Funds were launched in 2005 and made available to all children born in the UK between 1 September 2002 and 2 January 2011.

How do I check my CTF balance?

How can I find my (or my child’s) CTF?

  1. Go to HMRC’s tool.
  2. Fill in your (or your child’s) details, including name, address, date of birth, phone number and national insurance number.

What happened to my child’s trust fund?

Child Trust Funds were discontinued in 2011 and replaced by Junior ISAs. A Junior ISA is a tax-free savings account for children under the age of 18. It is important to note that you can only transfer a Child Trust Fund to a Junior ISA before a child turns 18.

When can I cash my Child Trust Fund?

At 16 years, a child can choose to operate their CTF account or have their parent or guardian continue to look after it, but they cannot withdraw the funds. At 18 years of age, the CTF account matures and the child is able to withdraw money from the fund or move it to a different savings account.

How do I check my CTF?

How do I withdraw my child’s trust fund?

Any young people unsure about whether or not they have a CTF should first ask a parent or guardian if they remember setting one up. Once they know who their provider is, they should contact them directly – and either request to withdraw the money or transfer the funds into an adult ISA or other savings account.

What happens to Child Trust Fund at 16?

When a child or young person turns 16 years old, they can legally take over responsibility for their Child Trust Fund account and can make decisions about the fund (such as switching to another provider or transferring it to a Junior ISA). They can do this by contacting their Child Trust Fund provider.
