Partner with no recourse to public funds.
Tue 21-Nov-06 11:13 AM |
Hi,
I have a client who is on I.S/CTB/HB living with her daughter. Also claims CHB and CTC.
She is due to get married to a Tanzanian in Jan 07 and wants to bring him to UK. He will have no recourse to public funds. I am clear on the rules re her benefits if he does not find work. However, if he finds work but it is low paid, can they claim WTC? Also how would it affect any HB/CTB that may be due, how does the LA treat them if he has no recourse, I know the claims would be in her name only but i understand they would take the whole household income into account so i would assume that any benefit due would in part be for him as well as her and daughter.
Any advice very welcome.
