The maximum that you can owe for a crisis loan is £1500.00 per person OR family unit, this is the bit that confuses most people that want to make an application to the Social fund, as they use the logic that a family of 4 may need more in comparison to a single person as far as the maximum loan amounts go- this is not the case.
Even though it does not seem fair that a single person can be deemed to need the same level of financial help as a family, as far at the maximum debt is concerned, this is how it pans out. However this does not effect the maximum daily crisis loan amounts directly
Example:
If Mr X calls and says that he is in crisis and he needs a crisis loan for food for 3 weeks he already owes £1450.00 he can only be awarded a maximum of £50
Mr and Mrs Y, and their 7 kids call and ask for a crisis loan for another 3 weeks, they already owe £1450.00 so they can only get a £50 crisis loan!
Hi to you ! Would you mind if I communicate your site with my facebook crowd? There is many persons whom I feel would thoroughly grasp your articles . I would appreciate it if you may perhaps let me know. Thank you
As a final note , let me thank you for your tolerance with my English as (I'm sure you have figured this by now,), English is not my first tongue accordingly I am using Google Translate to form out what to enter what I actually want to write .
