Is Help to Buy for first time house buyer regarded benefit?

Post by iberia » Fri Jul 15, 2016 7:49 pm

As a first time proper buyer, I wonder if the goverment's loan as Help to Buy to first time buyer regarded as benefit or public funds?

I am asking this because I need to ensure this issue will not have impact on ILR application. If yes, I will not apply for Help to Buy loan.

Many thanks!

It is not public funds or benefit.

See page 6 of the Public Fund guidance.
