Post Body

My elderly father (61) is due to come & live with me in November due to mobility issues. He is currently living in Italy. When he comes back we are going to make an appointment with the CAB regarding financial help as he is unable to work. He will be trying to claim for universal credit & then housing benefit, so he can find his own place. I am single & in full time employment & earn over 30k. My question is will he be able to claim any benefits whilst he is living with me? I cannot afford to fully support him. I can give him a roof over his head but that is all.
