It takes five months for child benefit to be paid for your new baby. ECS paid four times a year. Congratulations.

For how long are you/your baby entitled to the early childcare supplement?

Until the child reaches the age of 5 years and 6 months.

Sorry if i misinformed anyone. I have a letter dated 3-sept-08 that states my ECS is paid on second Monday of April, July, October, December into a bank account. Wonder when did that change? Cheers for the info.
