Financial eligibilityFinancial eligibility is determined by a means test. You will be asked about the size of your family (you, your spouse or partner and any dependents), your gross family income (before taxes) and the value of any property you own (e.g., car, house, jewellery). Before the Children’s Legal Aid Project began, unless a young person lived independently, the income of his/her parents or guardians determined eligibility. Since the Project began, there has been and is no financial eligibility requirement for persons under 18, and although the Project is based in Georgetown, the same applies to legal aid for children at our other offices.
