Asylum seekers are housed by the Home Office during the processing of their asylum claim.

In response to the Ukraine crisis, The Association of British Insurers has adopted a position to reflect support regardless of nationality: Association of British Insurers - Humanitarian response. As a result, policy holders will not experience any increase in the cost of their insurance premium when hosting a guest in their home for the first 12 months.
