Unemployment benefit
Hello everyone, My son who lives and works in Scotland is considering leaving his job to live with me and his stepfather, who has for the past 12 months had various illnesses, he is 77 and I am 66. Im not coping very well and I wonder would my son be able to claim any kind of benefit if he moves here as he has responsibilities in the UK. Thank you and any and all advice is much appreciated.
