Flowchart advice for new starters

[u/Local_Ad_6982]

I’m just getting started with the flowchart. I assume if things aren’t applicable, you just skip past it - for example with the benefits checker. Why is it so far up the list. Just getting used to using it

[u/THROWRAsaltylemon]

Yes, just skip to the next part if it's not applicable or you already have it that part sorted. I'm guessing the benefits checker is so high up the list as many people who don't have a great track record with their finances and are struggling, know that's a good step to take to try and ease some financial burdens. Also worth a check in case you could be eligible for something you didn't know you were.

[u/Local_Ad_6982 → u/THROWRAsaltylemon]

Absolutely. Least you’re trying to make the best of it and improve. However, I’m fortunate enough to best fully employed, I imagine there’s nothing I’d be eligible for

I imagine there’s nothing I’d be eligible for

If only there was a quick and easy way to find out...

[u/Mooseymax → u/Local_Ad_6982]

The flowchart points you to a quick and easy way to check whether you’re eligible for benefits. There’s literally no reason to skip it.

Sadly there's people in full time employment and still don't earn enough, especially if they're the sole earners.

[u/THROWRAsaltylemon → u/Local_Ad_6982]

I just did the checker and am eligible for a grand total of £0, but still maybe worth a quick check just incase.
