illegal immigrants Wed 24-Mar-04 11:08 AM
Can anyone tell me if someone who arrived in the UK as an illegal immigrant over 14 years ago and now currently has temporary stay in the UK under an IS96 can claim any benefits?
IS96 states no restirction to seeking employment but does not mention recourse to public funds.
since, if they are, they will be excluded from certain benefits, inc DLA, unles falling into a prescribed exception ... for the exceptions relating to DLA see ...
