A Junior ISA can be set up by anyone with parental responsibility for a child under 18 who is a UK resident. The child must not already have a Stocks & Shares Junior ISA or a Child Trust Fund.
No, money paid into a Junior ISA is locked in until the child reaches the age of 18, at which point the funds become their properties to access.
You typically have 30 days from the setup of the ISA to exercise your right to cancel. You will receive back the current market value of your investment, which implies you could get back less than you invested if market values have fallen.
You can stop, restart, raise, or lower your contributions at any time. This flexibility allows you to adjust your investment based on your current financial circumstances.
