ILR and Benefits?

[Terpe]

Arthur & Queenie,
It's true.
When you have been granted ILR you have full entitlement to ALL benefits in your own name.

Any benefits, if you notice on the residence permit, it does not have the words "no recourse to public funds" like on the initial visa, therefore, once a resident they are entitled to benefits.

... well ... I'll be blowed! You guys are both RIGHT it seems ... there IS no mention about there being "No Recourse to Public Funds" on Myrna's passport. I could've sworn I'd read somewhere on the UKBA website that it wasn't possible to claim benefits prior to naturalisation ... ... obviously I'm mistaken.
