SET(O) dependant online application and public funds

Post by bramhy » Mon Jan 07, 2019 3:49 pm

Hello There,

I would appreciate if any experienced users in this forum can help me.

I am an ILR holder and I am applying for ILR for my wife. While completing the online form there is a question under finances section
Do you or anyone else who is part of this application receive any public funds? (Required)
Include details for your partner or child if you have one. Examples of public funds include Income Support, Child Benefit, Housing Benefit, Council Tax Benefit, Carer’s Allowance and Disability Living Allowance.

I am receiving child benefit for our child and also DLA for the same child as the child is disabled.

I am not part of this application and neither is our child as child is British passport holder. If I am looking at the question only I would answer No as my wife is not receiving any benefits. But the text in grey under the question says include details of the partner and child which confuses me.

Please could any one help me with this question?

Regards.

Thank you for your reply @jwilliams83

I have read both the posts and other posts in the forum. I understand that I can claim child benifit as I do not have NRPF on my ILR. But with the new online form and the guidance published on the website it is unclear as how to answer the question.

In both the posts the question I have mentioned was not answered.

Do you or anyone else who is part of this application receive any public funds? (Required)
Include details for your partner or child if you have one. Examples of public funds include Income Support, Child Benefit, Housing Benefit, Council Tax Benefit, Carer’s Allowance and Disability Living Allowance..

I am receiving child benefit for our child and also DLA for the same child as the child is disabled.

I am not part of this application and neither is our child as child is British passport holder.

Should I answer yes or No to this question.

If any body have completed the form recently and was in same situation please could you help me.

Thanks.

If it asks the details, you need to complete it. The questions clearly states 'partner/child'.

You are allowed to claim benefits if you hold ILR or are British. It should have no effect on your spouse's ILR.
