There is no requirement to be employed to claim child benefit.

Hi again,
I checked the form and i don't see anywhere, where it says required documents. The only required document I can see is child's birth certificate if the child born/registered outside UK. But she is registered in UK. So I have no documents to send. Am I right?

thanks
