Would you expect to qualify for free health care if you went to another country? Probably not, but people coming to the UK on employment visas qualify as soon as they get here.I agree the whole tax credits thing has been a fiasco but that's an aside in my opinion. Fact is I wouldn't expect to given money if I went to a foreign country, and if I was I'd analyse it scrupulously!
It is generally some other countries! I assure you that Chinese Citizens are not being singled out.Does Chinese alone have this implication or is generally to some other countries?

2) Welfare Rights Bulletin 186: Public Funds, benefits and tax creditsIf you applied for child or working tax credits before January 2005, Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) may have paid you them in error. If so, HMRC will stop the payment. Any tax credits you did receive before the error was corrected will not count as recourse to public funds.
3) Tax Aid – Tax Credits – November 2005 updateThe fact that tax credit was not listed did not mean that person who was admitted to the UK with a public funds restriction could claim tax credits because the tax credit rules themselves excluded the person from entitlement.
Then I did two things:Some claimants have been incorrectly awarded tax credits because their immigration status was not fully considered when processing their original application. HMRC has announced that in these circumstances where errors have been made and the claimant is not in fact eligible, then the amounts incorrectly paid will not be recovered. This is because it was an error by the Tax Credit Office and the claimants could not reasonably have known that their award was incorrect.
It's worse than misleading. It's wrong.John wrote: In view of the wording of the Guide I would strongly maintain that it is misleading to say the least if only because of what it omits. .
Thanks, John.John wrote:Earl Grey, thanks for posting all that. A great first post.
But you know what you need to do now, don't you? Yes, claim Tax Credits and indeed also Child Benefit .... both now claimable totally legally, now that you have ILR.
Hi, the Child Benefit application form from 2003? Sorry I don't have that. What I have posted on this Board is the Tax Credits application form from 2003.
So what is it you have inadvertently claimed? Child Benefit or Tax Credits?
