Some content of this manual is being considered for archiving. If there is content you use regularly, please email [email protected] to let us know as soon as possible.

Where a customer is continuing to receive Child Benefit (CB), recovery can be made by withholding or reducing the amount of CB paid. These recoveries are recorded as payments on OPREC and the system automatically reduces the debt balance.

Further guidance can be found in the Desk Guide and the Recovery Manual (REC).
