    yes because we are just renting a room and he was born here so he is a british. i heard also that it will jeopardise my application because it means my husband cant support me.is this true?

    Good. As your son is British you will have no problem with the council accommodation.
    Relax.

    Your husband must make sure that any benefits are claimed in his name only or in the case of caims for Tax Credits are assessed jointly if you are living with a spouse or partner who is allowed to claim tax credits.
    It will automatically be a joint application at the request of HMRC and your name will therefore appear. This is not a problem for your ILR.

    Are you receiving ANY housing benefit?

    Basically, it would be extremely rare that an application for ILR be refused solely on financial grounds.

    The benefits are all in his name. No I dont received any housing benefit but when I was pregnant I received Health Pregnancy Grant its a public fund,is this a problem? My husband only claimed child benefit,child tax credit and recently council flat. He is the only one working as for the moment with a full time job because Im the one looking after our son.

    The Sure Start Maternity Grant (SSMG) is a one off payment of £500 to buy things for a new baby. It is paid from the Social Fund and is classed as public funds.
    You are not excluded from getting the SSMG provided you are living with a family member who is an EEA national.


    Health in Pregnancy Grant (HIPG) is a one-off payment of £190. The HIPG is classed as public funds.
    You are not excluded from the HIPG provided you are living with a family member who is an EEA national.

    Looks like you are all good to go ahead with ILR and no probs with Public Funds. Well done.
