    Getting married isn’t a change of circumstances that needs be reported. 

    Living with a partner is a change of circumstances that needs to be reported. Your PIP won’t be affected. 

    What other benefits are you currently claiming exactly? 

    Can I ask what you mean by this? 
    Also I will be moving into my parents flat which he pays for himself  ,
    Do you mean you’ll be living with your parents? Does you partner work or claim any benefits their self?
