If they have No Recourse to Public Funds then no and claiming benefits could cause big problems.

This is complex and they really do need to get expert advice. An internet forum isn't the place for this sort of advice.0 -
Hi there @Jacob02k and welcome to the community.
As Poppy has said, it's possibly best to look into more focused advice for this particular issue. We can offer support, but I don't think any of us are quite equipped for the kind of answers you'd be looking for. What was the reason for not passing the residency test previously?0
