    I think that happens quite a lot Howard.

    When refugees/asylum seekers are given the right to remain here, they are given a NI number which also means they are entitled to benefits and a pension.

    From Philip's link I have extracted the following:

    "Refugees" - i.e. asylum seekers whose application for asylum has been successful - are able to claim social security benefits and tax credits on the same basis as UK nationals, but may find it difficult to gain entitlement to contributory benefits since these depend upon the person having a sufficient contribution record".
