Online booking is available here
Who this course is for -
More experienced advisers working with people who are 'subject to immigration control' (including asylum seekers).
NB - People attending this course will be expected to have a working knowledge of the benefits system.
What this course is about -
Immigration status and benefits can be (and often is) hugely complicated. This course addresses and answers many of the queries we hear from advisers on this subject. Who is 'a person subject to immigration control' and what are the implications of claiming 'public funds'? What are the exceptions to the rules? What is the significance of someone’s status changing? And what happens when families have mixed immigration status?
By the end of the course you should understand who is 'subject to immigration control' for benefits and know how to check potential entitlements including if family members have different statuses.
