housing benefit and my egyptian fiance

can anyone tell me plz.. i uk citizen and i claim H/B i want my fiance from egypt to come on fiance visa is this a problem as i claim a benefit. or is it better to marry in egypt and come back home i so confused thanks

either way Fiance or Spouse, you will need to prove you can support her without recourse to public funds... as you are currently receiving public funds your application will probably be denied

Please see this fantastic link, which explains public fund and the effect of it on sponsoring of family members.

If you can prove that the presence of your partner will not result in you claiming additional benefits, you will be able to secure his visa.
