Int immigration great…. Nearly 500 migrants a day signing up for benefits Claims by foreign nationals hit a record high, as the number receiving Universal Credit climbs to 1.3 million Nearly 500 migrants a day are signing up for benefits as claims by foreign nationals hit a record high, official figures show. Last month, some 472 migrants a day began claiming Universal Credit, while the overall number of foreign nationals receiving it rose to nearly 1.3 million, an increase of 6.7 per cent in a year. The disclosure comes as Shabana Mahmood, the Home Secretary, will on Thursday announce new laws making migrants’ right to settle in the UK dependent on not claiming benefits. Under the new system of “earned” settlement, their rights to indefinite leave to remain (ILR) will depend on their ability to support themselves without claiming benefits, paying National Insurance, having a clean criminal record, speaking English to a high standard and volunteering in the community.
