    Question C'link payments & baby bonus

    Can someone tell me about how long it takes after forms are handed in for these to start being paid?
    I was under the impression of 14 - 21 days. Pretty sure thats what it was last time, but a friend who had a bub 4 months ago thinks she started getting paid with in a week or so.
    Things are a tad tight atm, so it'd be handy to know. One week would be great, lol, but I'm expecting 2 - 4 weeks.
    TIA

    Took about 1-2 weeks after I posted the papers in. I think it's quicker the second (or third or fourth lol) time around because they are just adding to your file

    i looked online the other day and noticed you can apply for payments if you are expecting a baby within a few weeks!

    My payments started a couple of weeks after i put forms in
