So you think she should be entitled to full and comprehensive benefits to add to her husband's wages with no need for her to ever bother looking for work, yes?

'left wing board'.

Not sure where the 'moral judgement' bit comes from unless you can think of some reason why taxpayers should be obliged to give her money in the circumstances initially described.

As an opinion - which is how it read to me until you explained that you meant 'legally obliged' - that all sounded very familiar.......

:eek: :D




.....which, as I already said, is why I'm glad you expanded.
Sorry if I was a bit unclear myself.

See this thing - "?".

It's called a question mark, which means I was asking you a question in response to your little hissy fit:

Any chance of you answering it, please?

Legally, or personally? :confused:

Legally - looks like the answer is 'no'. :(
Personally, 'yes' - I couldn't give a fuck. :)

don't wriggle. you tried to put words in my mouth. most unedifying - even for a chap of your standing in this here community.

aim your ire at white collar tax dodgers. Not pregnant ladies from bangladesh.
 
Just a little question, rather than starting a whole thread - I have been let go from my job and have received a signed letter etc confirming the 16th August as my last day. Do I have to wait until then to sign on or can I do it now?
 
In answer to the question in the thread title, can she sign on? I'd urge her to sign on, even if she doesn't get any money. Because

1) If it turns out she is entitled to something, it's fiendishly difficult to backdate a claim, and "I didn't think I could get any money" isn't taken to be an adequate reason for not claiming earlier

2) They'll pay her National Insurance contributions, which might not be much use now, but could entitle her to benefits in future.

You can't make a claim until you are actually unemployed -- signing a declaration that you're out of work is part of the claims process, and you're not, yet.

Nothing to stop you phoning for an appointment & getting the forms, though.

Congratulations on this truly marvellous act of dishonesty, representation and hypocrisy. Quite breathtaking stuff!

Did the opening post mention where she was from?
Why have you brought up 'white collar tax dodgers'?
How do you know that my "ire" isn't already directed at them?
No? So why bring it up?

You're just a cheap trolling fraud.

Any chance of answering my question, btw, or are you going for a marathon wriggle?

No. I'm not having this kind of vile, lying bullshit here, especially from a long term, trolling shit stirrer like cheg who should have been banned first time around for his antics on the other site.

User banned for, well, I'll see what the mods think.

No, she can't sign on cos she's not allowed to get unemployment benefit for the first two years she is married and settled in the UK.
 
Anyway - apparently it looks as though they would be able to claim both WTC and Child Benefit. He would have to claim for child benefit, but working tax credit is made as a couple....and is not affected at all by her status since he is a british citizen. :cool:


FROM HERE

Will carry on looking to see if I can find anything more official, but that sounds pretty positive. :)


Looks like the poor old tax payers ARE obliged after all!

She may not be entitled to benefit, but loads of people sign on for NI contributions.
