Online booking is available here
Who this course is for -
More experienced advisers working with clients from the EU.
NB - People attending this course will be expected to have a working knowledge of the benefits system.
What this course is about -
Your client's EU status has allowed them to enter, work or study, and live in the UK. Problems often arise when they fall sick, have children or only earn very low wages and need to claim benefits to survive.
This course covers -
- the right to reside and habitual residence test;
- how these tests operate for different benefits and who is exempt from them;
- what restrictions apply to accession state nationals;
- how changes in circumstances impact on residence rights and benefits.
We will look at current case law and the possible arguments that can be used to help your client establish a right to reside and habitual residence.
This course will ensure that you are able to correctly advise clients from the EU on their rights to benefits and identify and challenge incorrect decisions.
