Benefits for EEA nationals
CPAG in Scotland
This event is in the past
The requirement to have a right to reside for key benefits such as universal credit, remains a significant barrier preventing many EEA nationals accessing these benefits. In addition, the immigration status restrictions pose a separate barrier, which affects increasing numbers of EEA nationals in the UK. The law affecting the entitlements of EEA nationals continues to evolve and, to most effectively assist EEA nationals, it is vital that advisers keep up to date.
This standard level course offers a step-by-step approach to enable advisers to ask the key questions and gather the information most useful when assisting EEA nationals to obtain their benefit entitlements.
The course covers:
The requirements that restrict access to benefits for EEA nationals in the UK
The main groups that can satisfy the right to reside test
How to advise EEA nationals with pre-settled status
What EEA nationals may be able to do to access key benefits such as universal credit
