Claiming Benefits after ILR

Post by spacer » Sun Feb 09, 2014 1:50 pm

HI

I got ILR with my wife recently. I have few questions related to claiming benefits. I have my own company and is earning around 50K+. I am drawing a salary of net £1000 and my wife as a secretory on minimum wages. We have a baby girl born here in UK. What benefits can we claim? Can my wife claim low income support? How can I claim child benefit for my baby?

Will appreciate your help.


Regards

Check what you qualify for on the benefits calculator. Select British when it asks nationality.
