MY MOM: Italian 61 years old, a single mother, no other family members to help.
She lost her job and house and I have supported her financially when possible by sending her money from the Uk.
After losing the tenancy of our house she has been living in temporary accommodations and in very poor conditions ( no heating, no food, no money) for nearly four years.
No other help is available in Italy at the moment and she would only get a small social pension/welfare in four years time.
These challenging years damaged her health conditions and she developed major depression, anxiety and other physical and mental disabilities.
ME: Italian 29 yrs old, I have been living and working in the Uk for more than 5 years (financially independent).
I live in a shared accommodation right now and can't afford to rent a place to move in with my mom, or paying for her accommodation separately. I am very worried and this is becoming very challenging for me.
ACTUAL SITUATION
She is staying with me temporarily as my roommate went two months away.
After doing a lot of research (Gov.uk, Citizen Advice) I know that she has to stay in the Uk for at least 3 months before getting any help or support. She speaks beginners English but at the moment she is recovering from trauma, she is not able to walk and she has frequent anxiety attacks. I am not excluding the possibility for her to find a job (that is also why I have applied for her National Insurance Number) but at the moment it doesn't seem the first option.
I booked her NIN appointment so we can get a letter with her name and my address in order to proceed on other practical points like register to a GP and open a Bank Account.
Do you have ANY advice about what I could do next? I'm a bit lost.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
