Thanx for the responses guys, its just worrying because the actual statement says...
"Under the immigration rules you are not entitled to receive any public funds to help meet your living and accommodation costs ( or those of any dependants). In addition your sponsor is not entitled to claim or receive any public funds on your behalf. The term "public funds" is defined in paragraph 6 of the immigration rules. the public funds which you are not allowed to claim and receive are listed below"
It then goes on to list loads of different funds such as working tax credit child tax credit and child benefit.
We are at a bit of a loss as to where we will stand, hopefully you are right as my husband also seems to think that as the child is uk born and uk citzen it will be ok...who should we ask for definite answer? or is anyone else in the same boat who has claimed and hasnt been deported?
