More than 2,500 Scottish Child Payments have been made in Aberdeenshire since the scheme began in February.
The benefit, which is intended to help low-income families with the cost of raising a child, gives qualifying families £40 every four weeks for each child under the age of six.
Since the unique scheme began in February, 92% of applications have been processed, including nearly 3,000 from Aberdeenshire.
