  1. On my hearing, I pleaded guilty. The judge gave me conditional discharge for 12 months. Now I am very concerned about my name being on criminal record register for one year how am I meant to get a job when I have criminal record?
  2. Thanks a lot! I will more careful from now on.
  3. I already have paid back every single penny soon after Interview under caution. All I am worried about is the criminal record will become an obstacle in getting a job.
  4. Civil Engineering. I have finished my degree this June with upper s2nd class 2:1
  5. Thank you so much for your advice. Also, I do not hold British citizenship but I have Indefinite Leave to Remain. In future when I apply for Nationality would I be rejected by Home office because I committed fraud?
  6. Yes, unfortunately, I knowingly gave false information to gain benefit. as I was struggling financially.
  7. Thank you, I checked if I could get Legal aid, I do not qualify for legal aid. I'll ask duty solicitor on the day of hearing if I could get any help. No, I did not talk to CAB yet but I am trying to arrange an appointment with local community law centre.
  8. Yes, I unfortunately knowingly said 'NO' to the question if I was a student at that time because I was financially struggling to cope with rent and everything else.
  9. No unfortunately I did not admit the offence at the IUC. As I was very scared of telling them the truth. However, immediately after receiving the letter from DWP for the IUC I told Council that I am full-time student then council had stopped my benefits and asked me to return every single penny they had paid me in HB.
  10. I am appearing on 18th September. I am not sure how does legal aid work.
  11. I am from England. I have not taken any advice yet
  12. Hi there, I am to appear in court for the housing benefit fraud charges. I claimed housing benefits back in October 2014 while i was working part time. i became full-time university student in September 2014. when i made claim for housing benefits online, I mentioned that i am not full-time student. then benefits started and I ended my part-time job. Housing Benefits never stopped until july 2016 when i was interviewed under caution for benefit fraud. total amount for the housing benefits came up to around £4800. I have completed my degree in may 2017 now i am looking for graduate role. I am very scared and depressed knowing that i had committed fraud. If I plead guilty would I be sent to prison?
