grant entitlement

leelatik123

Hi, I really need some help on knowing what I could be entitled to and applying for it.
I went on the entitledto website but I didn't understand some of it and the site replied to my questions saying they can't help with a specific query about my circumstances or possible entitlement.


I wondered if anyone can help me find out if I'm entitled to anything?


I'm 22 and in my 2nd year at Uni.
I'm a full time student and get grants towards living costs, and maximum student loan. my rent is 65 per week. I don't currently work.
I live with a non dependant who must earn quite a bit to afford 500per month rent. my mum's on benefits and my dad died on 4th of march 09.

thankyou

I hope I don't sound too stupid

I've moved your post leelatik123 too see if all the nice MoneySavers on the Benefits and Tax Credits board can give you any tips.

I'm not quite sure what you're question is. Unless you're disabled or a lone parent, you aren't eligible for any benefits.

Sorry to hear about your father.

Do you have any more info that might help the good folk here advise you? Is it something specific you need? I know at my daughters Uni there are hardship grants and the student union gives advise re specific things,such as specialist equipment etc.
