You’ll be given somewhere to live if you need it. This could be in a flat, house, hostel or bed and breakfast.

 

You’ll usually get £49.18 for each person in your household. This will help you pay for things you need like food, clothing and toiletries.

You’ll get extra money to buy healthy food if you’re pregnant or a mother of a child aged 3 or under. 

 

You may get free National Health Service (NHS) healthcare, such as to see a doctor or get hospital treatment.

 

You’ll also get:

 

free prescriptions for medicine

free dental care for your teeth

free eyesight tests

help paying for glasses

 

You apply for the maternity grant in the same way whether you’re still an asylum seeker or you’ve been refused asylum.

 

You can apply for a one-off £300 maternity payment if your baby is due in 11 weeks or less, or if your baby is under 6 months old.

 

You may be able to get housing and money to support you and your family while you’re waiting to find out if you’ll be given asylum.

 

This also means your children will go to a free state school and you may get free healthcare from the National Health Service (NHS).

 

 

Not bad for starters.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That's only what we know about ...!

It's almost like the Home Office cannot allow asylum seekers to live on the streets or go hungry

Yep the Home Office have a duty of care for their health too. If Asylum Seekers were allowed to work maybe they wouldn't be entitled to prescriptions, dental etc
