Hi I am new on this forum. I would like some advice please. I am a UK citizen, I married to a PSW visa holder.

Date of Registry     31 Oct 2011.
she applied for FLR (m)    4 April 2012.
we have now had a child   12 Sept 2012

my question is, can I apply for Tax Credits, Child Benefits and/or anything else? and if I do recieve them will my wife have to notify the UKBA regarding the changes of circumstances. (Baby / TC's / CB)

any help or advice would be appreciated.

You can apply for benefits as you are a UK national.  Make sure that your partner's status is declared when asked.

This question has been asked countless times in this forum - please make full use of the search engine, and look in the 'benefits' section.

Thanks Victoria, I guess the second part of my quesion would be, as the FLR(m) application was made back in April and we are still waiting for an outcome, should my wife notify the UKBA / Home Office about our baby born 12/09/12

much appreciated.

No need.
