Hi
Doing a postgrad at uni for a year. Not entitled to any grants etc as its a postgraduate. Relocated to different county and had to give up my job. Am disabled and a single mother. Been job seeking 2 days work to fit around my course but have not been successful. As of next week there will be zero income coming in apart from my DLA middle rate and tax credits. Is there any benefits I am entitled to now before I start university at end of the month?
have submitted claim for HB. Have worked solidly since 1996 and the job market has been a million miles from the 90's! I'm overqualified or cant do full time!

Wouldn't it have been a good idea to have investigated the finances of this move before giving up your job?0
