Spouse savings and existing benefits

Post by Asgard » Wed Mar 21, 2012 7:52 pm

Sorry if this has been asked before. And sorry if in wrong forum. What happens if the non-UK spouse has more than £16,000 in savings? Does that mean their British partner who is on existing benefits is no longer eligible for any means tested benefits?

If so does this take effect when the non-UK spouse starts to live in the UK, or is it a factor for the British partner even when the non-UK spouse is living permanently overseas awaiting a visa decision?

Many thanks.
