Benefits for non-EEA nationals

CPAG in Scotland

This event is in the past

This standard level course offers an opportunity for advisers to gain knowledge and confidence to advise non-European nationals on how their immigration status affects their entitlement to benefits. The course takes a step-by-step approach and looks in-depth at how the rules apply to different scenarios.

The course covers:

Who is a ‘person subject to immigration control’

Which benefits they are excluded from and the exceptions

When a ‘no recourse to public funds’ restriction is relevant

How a change in immigration status affects entitlement to benefits

The benefit entitlements of someone living with a partner or child with a different immigration status

This course is aimed at those who advise non-European nationals on their benefit entitlements. If you also advise European nationals you should also book on the course Benefits for EEA nationals.
