Temporary admission is merely a period of grace granted by UKIV to be present in the UK for a limited period without falling foul of the law so that person has time to apply for asylum or leave. Temporary admission is not a form of leave so it does not confer a right to reside or allow that person to claim public funds. Many asylum seekers have temporary admission so they can make their asylum application and any appeals within the UK.
