Benefits are being claimed by over one million foreign nationals, according to an analysis of Government figures.
Households with at least one foreign national claimant received more than £7.5 billion in Universal Credit in 2023, figures from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) show.
Foreign nationals become eligible for Universal Credit and other benefits on the same terms as British citizens once they are granted indefinite leave to remain and have settled or refugee status.
