    Hey i was just awarded Btea and Im currently claiming money for a dependant and also rent allowance. So i was wondering if i will continue getting the dependant payment and rent allowance while on Btea?

    Thanks

    I kept my Rent Allowance payment when I moved onto BTEA, so I'd imagine you will.

    I know nothing about claiming for a dependant, but I can't see any reason why they'd cut you.

    I also continued to receive rent allowance after I transferred onto BTEA. No problems.

    Sorry to hijack your thread, but just wondering how long it took for you to receive confirmation on your BTEA application?

    I remember being frustrated at how close to starting college the whole thing was. I had wanted to apply way earlier but that wasnt the way they worked it in my office. They asked for it after a certain date I think. I think I applied two weeks before college started and got my acceptance letter the next week.
