Studying after 18+ lots of other questions

[Blackmage]

I need some help guys. i want to study an Access to ICT course in September I'll be 19 by then. i don't have a part time job, since i got fired in OCT last year. I have found that my pass marks have increased, since i stopped part time working! I don't live with my mum any more since we had a major argument (which i prefer anyway). I live with my (Aunty). meh to much typing see questions below.

What Course fee's Will i need to pay?
Is their any kind of benefits i should i apply for now?
I'm not on the dole, is that something i should claim?
I don't want to live in hostel and my Aunty is allowing me to live with her, will this effect what i can claim?
Will getting another job make life a whole lot easier?
I also want to claim my tax back how do i do that?

Thanks Guys

September is a fair way off mate, would you not be in a better position as you've said to get another part time job or even a temporary full time job to bring some money in until then?
Living on the doll isnt really something you want to be thinking about at just 19, and although some people do it the amount given isn't a lot and is just about enough to get by on. By the sounds of things if you're looking to go into an advanced IT course you should have little difficulty getting a job again, and then save your money until September.
Take a look around the government website for ideas on claiming back tax. Here

I am kinda in a similar situation to you, im getting near the end of year and am unsure where i stand to further education.
The difference between us is that despite not having a job for some time unlike many of my friends, I finally went down to Reed and asked them for help finding a job to suit my lifestyle and hours I could do. Sure enough within a few weeks I began working for 3Com where I am now happily bringing in a nice wage each week, tiding me along during my education.
I was also getting taxed on my earnings initially, but I told Reed of this and they sent me some sort of Tax form and upon returning it filled out, within a week or so they refunded all my taxed money and I havent been taxed since!

Best of luck, hope ive been of some help!
