Refugee integration loan
How you're paid
The loan will be paid directly into your bank or building society account.
Repaying the loan
If your application is successful, you鈥檒l be sent a loan agreement which will tell you how to repay the loan.
You will not have to start repaying the loan until 6 weeks after you get the money.
How much your repayments are and how you pay will depend on your circumstances. You may have to pay more and in a shorter time if you start working and your benefits change.
For example, if you鈥檙e receiving Universal Credit, you鈥檒l pay back up to 拢25 a month. If you work full-time, you鈥檒l need to pay back 拢50 a month.
Your loan will not usually affect any income-related benefits you get unless you have more than 拢6,000 in savings.
You must tell Jobcentre Plus if you get an integration loan.
