Child benefit restart query

Hi I previously opted out of child benefit due to the high income tax change, which would have completely negated it. Due to the upcoming changes around thresholds in April 2024, I wish to reactive the benefit. I mistakenly raised a new child benefit application, but I did pick 'have you previously claimed for hcild benefit...' option, which I did. I didn't realise there was a faster option to reactivate it via the opt out function in my online account. Is this a problem? Thanks Peter

Hi lam22,
You will need to contact the Child Benefit office to check when the Child Benefit is to restart:
