You asked
Since the Minimum Income Rule came into force for Non-EU citizens in 2013, could you please provide information as to how many children are living in one parent family household in the UK due to them not meeting the criteria?
How many are in each country, Scotland, England, Wales, and N. Ireland?
How many of the families are on Social Security Benefit due their one parent family status?
We said
Thank you for your request.
Unfortunately, we do not collect data on either citizenship or the relationship status to anyone outside of the household within England and Wales. Your request may be better placed with the Home Office who can be contacted on the following foirequests@homeoffice.gov.uk.
