I'm just curious really.
BIL was born in England to English Dad and Irish mum. The family moved to Ireland when he was 5.
He's changed careers and is trying to get into a career it's quite hard to get into and most job oppression are in England/UK. He's been mostly unemployed for 2 years now. He's 42.
His plan is to move to England and claim 'income support' - is that the correct name, its jobseekers benefit in Ireland.
Anyway - seeing as he has never worked in England and hadn't been resident, can he really just move and start claiming??
He does have a UK passport I think.
