Most non-British nationals who are granted temporary permission to live in the UK, will be granted this permission subject to the condition that the person does not access public funds in the UK. The condition of no recourse to public funds is a common feature on the BRP card of a non-British national and we encourage our clients to pay careful attention to the conditions of their leave to remain in the UK. A failure to observe the conditions of leave to remain in the UK can have an impact on any future applications to remain in the UK and in some circumstances represent a criminal offence.
There may however be circumstances where a person’s situation has changed since they applied to enter or remain in the UK and they can no longer manage to maintain themselves or their family without additional support.
