So Obie in your opinion do you think its best if i just keep the tenancy as it is in my name? i have been living at this property 2 years before i met my partner.Obie wrote:She is not entitled to social housing. It will be considered as Public funds.
There are other ways you can demonstrate joint cohabitation, especially where there are children involved, rather than getting your wife to do something which is illegal.
I don't think they will include her as joint tenant in the first place as she does not hold ILR.
However, you need to try and regularise her stay. What is her immigration history and yours?Page 15 wrote:A British citizen or a person settled in the UK who receives housing from a local authority
can include their partner’s name on the tenancy agreement, even if their partner is subject to
immigration control.
As it is not the person subject to immigration control making the claim they must not be
considered to be claiming public funds.
D4109125 everything regarding HB+CTB is as it should be i do not claim the single persons discount as i am not single and the council are fully aware of my partners immigration status and the fact she has no recourse to public funds and i am paid at the single persons benefit rate for myself and my child.D4109125 wrote:Did you not submit an appeal/judicial review? You may no longer be entitled to the single person discount on council tax. Moreover, if you are living as a couple then the claim for HB/CTB should be joint but only paying a single person/lone parent applicable amount.
