Figgy Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Hello there...... I wonder if someone could help or point me in the right direction 4 the relevant info?Single parent with 3 children, (one who is Autistic) bought a house & moved 2 S/W France this year. Waiting 2 years to see if we adapt & want to stay (We pretty much already know that we do) & then will sell UK house to cover outstanding debts etc.... (at least that's the plan)What do i need to do to be able to get into the french system with regards to financial assistance. being unemployed, caring for a disabled child.Many thanks for any info.Figgy....

Quillan Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 You can't claim off the French system as you have put nothing in.However for the first 2 years you can claim and have paid in France your UK allowances. You need to visit the appropriate UK departments and tell them what you are doing and if you are still recieving benifits from the UK they will give you the relevent documents to bring to France. I believe that you don't get any raises that are issued each year in the UK. After the two years are up you are on your own.This is only what I have been told but if I was you I would go see specialists in the UK. The French are not as 'generous' as the Brits on these matters and locals don't like people who come to France and them claim off the French system, well not round here anyway. In fact they can get very nasty, spitting on people and such like.Chrishttp://www.chambresdhote.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
