    • If you declare a handicap, the CSC will undertake a thorough evaluation of your circumstances to see if you qualify for additional financial support. The CSC’s family allowances are simply meant to help with the costs of keeping your family in the United Kingdom. The true expenses are almost certainly much higher. Any family members who accompany you to the UK must be able to complement these allowances.
