No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF)

We have a duty to support: 

• people who have leave to remain but no recourse to public funds
• those who have a need for social care
• families where the children are destitute or at risk of being destitute

You may have a need for social care linked to:

• old age
• mental or physical ill-health
• pregnancy
• having responsibility for children who are homeless or at risk of being homeless

We may have a duty to support other categories of migrants and asylum seekers if failure to do so would result in a breach of certain human rights.
